word from weird tales

Email rec'd:
 
2008 marks the 85th anniversary of Weird Tales, and the magazine has debuted an exciting new look and a host of new editorial features, including a recent spotlight on The 85 Weirdest Storytellers of the Past 85 Years! It's the perfect time to subscribe for six issues for $20! But if you want to check out the magazine first, here's your chance: a trial pack of four recent back issues for just $13!

Originally founded in the 1920s with the mission of finding and publishing "the next Edgar Allan Poe," Weird Tales has featured such authors of unearthly fiction as H. P. Lovecraft, Ray Bradbury, Robert E. Howard, and Stephen King. Today, Weird Tales' gothic eeriness continues to evolve with a regular mix of young, up-and-coming talent — discover Sarah Monette, Barth Anderson, Carrie Vaughn! — as well as fan-favorite authors such as Michael Moorcock, Tanith Lee, and Caitlín R. Kiernan.

"There’s a little horror, a little comedy, some romance, a dash of drama, and a smidge of science fiction. . . . It will appeal most to someone who flops into a recliner, opens the magazine at random, and expects simply that it provide entertainment without preconditions.” —Tangent Online
