Find Best Price at Amazon"This gem of a magazine--published in Britain but covering the world--is about all things fortean. The odd, the strange, the inexplicable, the paranormal--what we forteans like to call events of "high strangeness"--all and more are covered monthly in "Fortean Times"."
"The "damned" covers a wide range, and in the pages of this magazine you'll find articles on such varied subjects as religious miracles, the latest happenings in UFOlogy, sightings of strange or out-of-place animals, and the weirdest cartoons in Christendom. First up in the news section there is a report on how the Queen Mother's death led to a holiday park fire when the curse of the Koh-I-Noor diamond struck again; a reported 120 million year old map found carved in stone in the Ural mountains; a report of a family of nine children, all given up for adoption, who became close friends without knowing of their relationship and some great snippets on current advances in astronomy - including the interesting news that out towards the stars Pioneers 10 and 11 are slowing down. The main article in this issue is a long profile of Sci-Fi legend Philip K Dick, detailing both his place in Fortean literature, and also his influence on current Sci-Fi cinema, particularly with reference to the latest blockbuster "Minority Report". The rest of the magazine is taken up by a couple of short articles, including a look at some of the odder events of the Queen mother's life, an extensive letters section that's, as usual, entertaining and enjoyable, and a reviews section covering books on George Bush's connection to big business, Jack the Ripper, and seeing ghosts; a review of "Minority Report" and more of the brilliant cartoons that are studded through the mag."
"Fortean Times is a British magazine of all things anomalous."
"This is a terrific magazine, offering a forum for those who take extreme positions, and those of us with a "I'll believe it when I see it" attitude to discuss, and read up on Weird Phenomena."
"Every issue is packed with amusing clippings and reports from all over the world that are hard to believe, and probably shouldn't be. If you hear a snickering one-liner about a man killed by a juke-box at the top-of-the-hour radio news and want to know more, you can bet you'll find it in the "Strange Deaths" column."

Best Other Eastern Religions Magazines
One of the longest-running and most highly regarded magazines in the field, F&SF is the original publisher of Stephen King's Gunslinger stories, Daniel Keyes' "Flowers for Algernon," and many other classics.
Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"They publish what I consider to be the best short works in the genre - there is always at least one story that sticks with me for a period of time (often years), and the articles are helpful and informative... or just thought-provoking."
"Fantasy & Science Fiction is still putting out a great collections of short stories in every issue."
"On newsstands and on Kindle, there are 3 major magazines devoted to short works (from short stories to novellas) in science fiction: "Analog Science Fiction and Fact", "Asimov's" and "The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction" (F&SF; here I mean the Extended version on Kindle - the free edition just contains the non-fiction parts of the magazine and is more or less a teaser for the Extended version). Analog and Asimov's (both published by Dell Magazines) tend to publish science fiction that involves spaceships, aliens, robots and the like. F&SF prints stories that are more literary, sort of like a normal short story with an element of science fiction / fantasy (sometimes described as "New Wave" science fiction to distinguish it from the subject matter of the "pulps" from the mid 20th century). Actually, I like "spaceship" science fiction, but I subscribe to F&SF and only purchase Asimov's if that month's issue sounds promising. Analog has a reputation of having the most science-based SF stories, even including a "Brass Tacks" section where readers can discuss what they think are factual errors that appeared in the stories (or in the one-per-issue science fact article)."
"Thought provoking stories."
"Knowing that this beauty is on the way every other month makes me feel like I'm 13 years old all over again - lost in imagination and eagerly awaiting the next issue!"
"Hands down the best of the bunch."
"I dislike that when the new issue downloads it removes the previous, and after going through the Manage My Kindle instructions, find that I have to redeliver the previous issues manually in order to finish them off."
"I have to agree with other reviews."
