Publication Series

From ISFDB

Jump to: navigation, search

Publication Series are publications issued under a common name, logo, or design, and sometimes under a common editorship. These are generally created by publishers, not authors, and are also called publisher series. At present, the ISFDB database does not support publication series, although it has records for the individual publications, and the publication series may well be mentioned in the notes fields of such records. As a result, we are documenting publication series using the ISFDB wiki using either bibliographic comment pages or as sections of publisher pages. Many, but not all, such pages use the {{PubSeriesHeader}} header template.

This page lists the current publication series that are scattered throughout the ISFDB Wiki. Many of these are also included in the Publication Series category.

Future lists:

  • MagicQuest (In progress - at least two more to find, 4 to number. BLongley 18:42, 19 March 2009 (UTC)}
  • Publisher:Del Rey / Ballantine Gold Seal Selection
  • Gregg Press Science Fiction Series (1975-1981)
  • Hyperion Press Classics of Science Fiction (1974-1976)
  • Garland Library of Science Fiction (1975)
  • Ace SF Specials (three different series: 1968-1971, 1975-1977, 1984-1990)
  • Ace Fantasy Specials (1987-1989)
  • Pulphouse's Short Story chapbooks (1991-1992)
  • Pulphouse's Author's Choice Monthly (1989-1992) (identified now as an author series in the database)
  • Gollancz's Ten Best SF Books of All Time (2006)
  • Terri Windling's Fairy Tales
  • Publisher:Lancer Science Fiction Library (1962-1965 and 1972-1973)
  • Berkley/Byron Preiss Visual Publications' Masterworks of Science Fiction and Fantasy (1983-1985)
  • The Dennis Wheatley Library of the Occult 1974-1977 (Probably not the Nonfiction though)
  • Gryphon SF Rediscovery series
  • Ben Bova Discoveries
  • A Frederik Pohl Selection
  • Jim Baen Presents

This would also be a good place to create a link to a listing of the Tor Doubles which are currently identified in the database through the publisher field (which is vulnerable to change.)
