Review of Interzone 233 at Albedo One Website

I've reviewed one of my favourite magazines, Interzone, at Albedo One online. This issue is edited by Andy Cox and features fiction from Nina Allan, Chris Butler, Ray Cluley and Tim Lees.

Science fiction and fantasy print magazine Interzone has been around for more than 25 years, and has launched the careers of many well-known authors of the genre writing today. Originally edited by David Pringle from 1982 to 2004, editorship then passed to Andy Cox (who is also editor of Black Static). Andy has produced approximately thirty issues of Interzone thus far and has kept the magazine going strong, achieving accolades from authors such as Greg Egan, Michael Moorcock, Arthur C. Clarke, Terry Pratchett and Christopher Fowler.

Paul Drummond Sci Fi Artwork

I just noticed the new cover art for Jupiter Magazine 30, which wil feature my novella "The Uncertainty Bridge". The cover illustraiton is impressive, by Paul Drummond, a thumbnail of which I've reproduced here. However you can see a much better reproduction on Paul's website here.
Deciding to check out more of Paul's work I went to his online galleries and discovered some very cool pictures, and realised I'd seen his work before, in Interzone.

When looking at science fiction artist's work, I sometimes find myself coming up with ideas for stories behind the illustrations, even though many of those illustrations are the result of someone's literatary imagination. Jim Burns, Tim White and Chris Moore have all drawn more than one sci fi scene that has sent my mind racing. I found myself doing the same examining Paul's work.

If you like science fiction art, Paul's site is well worth checking out. I particularly liked this one.
