Our in-house reviewers are Stephen Theaker and John Greenwood, and other reviewers contributing to the magazine's review section have included Rafe McGregor, Douglas Ogurek, Jacob Edwards, Howard Watts and Steve Redwood.
Over the last year or two, for example, we've reviewed novels, novellas, single author collections, multi-author anthologies, chapbooks, magazines, comics and graphic novels, audiobooks, audio plays, films, television programmes and videogames.
In terms of genre, we are interested in science fiction, fantasy, horror, surrealist fiction and literary fantasy.
We don't mind being sent self-published books, but we're unlikely to get around to reviewing any self-published books that are more than a couple of hundred pages long.
We're happy to review books from ebook files (mobi/epub), pdfs and print (in order of preference). If sending a pdf or ebook file, it's okay to just send it to the email address above without query. If you want to post something to us, email and we'll send you an address.
More or less everything we receive for review will be added to our Amazon store, as long as it's available on Amazon.co.uk, meaning it'll be advertised on the blog via our Amazon widget.
Black Static's book reviewer Peter Tennant has offered some excellent advice on submitting work for review. In particular please pay attention to points nine and ten, because we take the same approach.
If we don't enjoy your work, and as a result you blog about how stupid our reviews are, we're unlikely to review your books in future. Not out of spite, but simply because you'll have put us in a position where a negative review of your next book could be seen as motivated by a grudge.
Plus, authors complaining about reviews tend to sound a bit like this.
We would love to receive more books for review from female authors and editors:
