Best Semiprozine Part 2

Black Gate – Online magazine with a focus on fantasy literature.  Notable for in-depth reviews and analysis of both current novels and genre classics.

Kaleidotrope – Quarterly online magazine of fantasy/SF stories and poetry.  It has a distinct leaning towards the strange and the quirky, and if that is your sort of thing, you’ll enjoy this.

Strange Horizons – Weekly magazine of stories, articles, poetry and reviews – leaning heavily towards in-depth articles and interestingly experimental fiction.  SF’s supposed to be the literature of ideas, and this zine tries very hard to prove it.
