Themes from science fiction, fantasy, and horror have been an intimate part of contemporary poetry in the United States and abroad. The publishing of poetry by those American writers who view themselves as primarily science fiction/fantasy/horror writers has been less common and generally relegated to infrequent appearances in genre publications; this has changed dramatically since the early 1970s. In Contemporary Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror Poetry, Green provides evidence that there are, in fact, many opportunities for publishing such genre poetry in both commercial and small press publications.Contemporary Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror Poetry includes guides to major magazines that publish this type of poetry, each with an index of poets published, a bibliography of major anthologies, and a biographical directory of poets active in the three genres. The book also includes an appendix of awards.

Isaac Asimov (1920-1992) had a brilliant career as a scientist, teacher, and writer. Best known for his science fiction novels and stories, he also wrote poetry and nonfiction, and he prepared guides to the Bible, Shakespeare, and other literary works. His personal book collection is held in the Special Collections Department of the Mulgar Library at Boston University. This volume is a guide to the holdings of the Asimov collection there.Included are annotated entries for books by Asimov along with books that he owned. Such books may have influenced him, for he thought them important enough to keep in his private library. The first half of the book includes works by Asimov, with chapters devoted to particular types of works. The second half includes entries for works that Asimov owned but did not write, with chapters arranged similarly. Entries in each chapter are listed alphabetically, with annotations discussing the significance of the works and the editions held by the library.
