Sci-fi and Heroic Fantasy discussion

Here's a way to get lost for years: The Internet Archive now has Galaxy Magazine from 1953-1980.

Popularized by editor HL Gold and then Frederick Pohl, you'll find a lot of good stories within. The magazine declined in the early 70s under different ownership, but picked up again under James Baen (who later founded his own publishing house that still has his name.)

The mobi (Kindle) and epub (Nook/Apple) versions are via automated character recognition and are weak on formatting, but the PDF and JPG zips are strait scanned images of the venerable magazines pages.

(A couple of years ago Omni Magazine was added to the Internet Archive. Omni had a shorter but flashier run, 1978-95. That archive has since moved to Omni Media)

One of my favorites when I was a kid...

In my collection from way back when is an issue I picked up of Galaxy that features the first part of Dune Messiah.

You can go to Pulp Magazine Archive for many other magazines. Click science fiction on the left side of the page, to narrow down to science fiction.

These were "stolen" from a group of pulp magazine scanners i belong to. You think those are good, you should see our other holdings...i cant name the group as G33 told me a couple of years ago i couldn't
