Recently Read: The Digest Enthusiast, Book Ten


Another excellent volume of this digest about digests. Vol. 10 starts out with an amazing 14 pages of news about current digests. Among the highlights of the book, after an in-depth interview with author James Reasoner, are an overview of the '60s Startling Mystery Stories series, an article on Sol Cohen's tenure at Amazing Stories (I'd love to read even more on this), a look at the Charlie Chan Mystery Magazine (I didn't know it existed!), so-called Bronze books, and the second part overview of Manhunt Detective Story Monthly. All in all, a wealth of information for digest magazine collectors, and highly recommended
