Series ✦ Penny’s Take
Science Fiction and Fantasy Series and Sequels
Tim Cottrill · 1986
58/100
👎 Skip It
In 1986, a comprehensive bibliography of English-language SF/F series was genuinely useful, and Cottrill, Greenberg, and Waugh were the right people to compile it. Today, the Internet Speculative Fiction Database does the same work more completely, more accurately, and for free. This has real value as a historical artifact and for collectors, but as a working reference tool it has been superseded. The score reflects its current utility, not its importance when published.
