  • JUDITH MERRIL-PDF-Sep23-07.Pdf (368.7Kb)
    JUDITH MERRIL: AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY AND GUIDE Compiled by Elizabeth Cummins Department of English and Technical Communication University of Missouri-Rolla Rolla, MO 65409-0560 College Station, TX The Center for the Bibliography of Science Fiction and Fantasy December 2006 Table of Contents Preface Judith Merril Chronology A. Books B. Short Fiction C. Nonfiction D. Poetry E. Other Media F. Editorial Credits G. Secondary Sources About Elizabeth Cummins PREFACE Scope and Purpose This Judith Merril bibliography includes both primary and secondary works, arranged in categories that are suitable for her career and that are, generally, common to the other bibliographies in the Center for Bibliographic Studies in Science Fiction. Works by Merril include a variety of types and modes—pieces she wrote at Morris High School in the Bronx, newsletters and fanzines she edited; sports, westerns, and detective fiction and non-fiction published in pulp magazines up to 1950; science fiction stories, novellas, and novels; book reviews; critical essays; edited anthologies; and both audio and video recordings of her fiction and non-fiction. Works about Merill cover over six decades, beginning shortly after her first science fiction story appeared (1948) and continuing after her death (1997), and in several modes— biography, news, critical commentary, tribute, visual and audio records. This new online bibliography updates and expands the primary bibliography I published in 2001 (Elizabeth Cummins, “Bibliography of Works by Judith Merril,” Extrapolation, vol. 42, 2001). It also adds a secondary bibliography. However, the reasons for producing a research- based Merril bibliography have been the same for both publications. Published bibliographies of Merril’s work have been incomplete and often inaccurate.

    bookfever.com List 133 SPECULATIVE FICTION A selection of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror with many signed books, including juveniles, proofs, pulps, digests and original anthologies. With over 10,000 signed or inscribed books in inventory, this is just a tiny sampling of what we have available. Credit cards accepted. Free Media Mail in USA. Please check our website for more options. 1.Adams, Richard. THE GIRL IN A SWING. London: Allen Lane, (1980.) Uncorrected proof. A very different novel by the author best known for 'Watership Down.' A love story with a steadily growing undertone of horror. It is ironical - in light of the fact that in the preface to this book, Adams says that he "cannot be sure of unraveling the experienced from the imagined" - that this novel was the subject of a libel suit, and the first printings were suppressed and the name of the main character - Kathe - was changed (this proof copy is, of course, the first state with the original name.) INSCRIBED by Adams on the first page "To - yours sincerely." 397 pp. Very good in printed blue covers - an uncommon advance issue. 57321 $125.00 2.Aiken, Joan. THE WOLVES OF WILLOUGHBY CHASE. London: Jonathan Cape, (1962) First printing. The fourth novel by this award winning writer, a masterful dark fantasy novel for older children, one which "takes place in 1832 - in a period of English history that never happened. Good King James III is on the throne and the country is ravaged by wolves which have migrated through the newly opened Channel Tunnel." Dust jacket art and illustrations by Pat Marriott.

  • Horny Toads and Ugly Chickens: a Bibliography on Texas in Speculative Fiction
    HORNY TOADS AND UGLY CHICKENS: A BIBLIOGRAPHY ON TEXAS IN SPECULATIVE FICTION by Bill Page Dellwood Press Bryan, Texas June 2010 1 HORNY TOADS AND UGLY CHICKENS: A BIBLIOGRAPHY ON TEXAS IN SPECULATIVE FICTION by Bill Page In this bibliography I have compiled a list of science fiction, fantasy and horror novels that are set in Texas.

One encounters familiar plot devices, such as time travel, in other books. Stories often depict a Texas devastated by some apocalypse – sometimes it is global warming, sometimes World War III has been fought, and usually lost, by the United States, and, in one case, the disaster consisted of a series of massive earthquakes which created ecological havoc and destroyed most of the region's infrastructure. The mystique of the old west has long been an alluring subject for authors; even Jules Verne and Bram Stoker used Texans in stories.
