Best American Fantasy: Moving to Underland
Effective immediately, the Best American Fantasy series is moving from Prime Books to Underland Press. Volume 3, guest-edited by Kevin Brockmeier (series editor Matthew Cheney), will be published by Underland in early 2010. The contents will be announced shortly. In another change, the year will be dropped from the title and each installment will just go by the volume number. This will allow for greater flexibility in scheduling.Best American Fantasy 2 is now available--featuring fiction by Rick Moody, Aimee Bender, Kelly Link, Peter S. Beagle, Jeffrey Ford, Kage Baker, and more--and contributor copies will go out shortly.
