Includes bibliographic information as well as articles on Fantasy related topics. Bibliographic material is presented in essay form (most important works first, with the rest in chronological order), mixed with synopsis and critical information. Individual titles are present with dates of first publication, and often lists variant titles and pseudonym information.
Reference to this encyclopedia within ISFDB, whether or not the print publication year "1997" is stated, may in fact refer to content revised and available only online. EoF is online and freely accessible since October 2012, with ongoing revisions limited to "the correction of obvious errors and the insertion of death dates" (--David Langford, contributing editor).
See also:
- New Data, Typographical Errors, Factual Corrections, and Miscellanea (last updated March 2003) – addenda including omitted entries
The updates are incorporated in the online edition (below) but may be useful as supplements to the print editions. The target page links other supplementary material such as a "List of Theme Entries" (official, not rigorously checked), which the print EoF lacks.
- Encyclopedia of Fantasy (1997) at SFE: The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction, 3rd ed. – the top page for EoF as a supplement to SFE3
EoF is online and freely accessible since October 2012, with ongoing revisions limited to "the correction of obvious errors and the insertion of death dates" (--David Langford, contributing editor).
Cross-reference links within EoF entries target EoF entries and those within SFE3 entries target SFE3 entries. The two encyclopedias are integrated at the level of header and footer links, however. Header links in EoF include "SFE entry" where SFE3 contains a corresponding entry. Footer links in SFE3 may include a list of related EoF entries. For instance, see the header at EoF: "Nesbit, E" and footer at SFE3: "Nesbit, E".
