BFS Publications

 

The British Fantasy Society currently produces three magazines (Dark Horizons, New Horizons and Prism) combined as separate sections in a new single publication, called the BFS Journal. Members currently receive every item which the BFS publishes during their membership period.

Over the years the BFS has issued various publications under a variety of names and formats, on all manner of subjects, including fiction, biographies and bibliographies. Editors, authors, writers and artists have been as many and varied as their subject matter.

Prism (originally known as the Bulletin) and Dark Horizons first appeared in 1971. Later, a range of booklets was produced as bonus items, as part of the membership, although each had a price tag for resale to non‑members through specialist shops. Eventually, the BFS began to publish paperback and hardback books, such asThe Age of Chaos (2002) and Houses on the Borderland (2008).

From the very outset it has been the BFS’s aim to produce items that will appeal to a wide audience and endure as tributes to favourite authors and subject matters in the best way possible.

If you have information about any BFS titles not currently listed in these pages, please get in touch and let us know.

 

Buying Our Publications

Occasionally we may have surplus copies of some publications available – email the  BFS Store  to ask about availability, or check our store on eBay. For older titles, searching on Amazon or eBay is probably the best bet.

We don’t sell copies of our periodicals to non-members. The only way to be sure of getting every new issue of the BFS Journal is to join the British Fantasy Society.
