Two new titles have been added to the Library’s magazine collection just for our mystery fans!
Mystery Scene Magazine includes articles and reviews on books, films, TV shows, audio-books, children's mysteries, and more.
Edgar-winning mystery writer Jan Burke calls it “An indispensable guide to what's happening and who's who in the world of crime writing."
Mystery Scene – which recently published its 100th issue – publishes five issues each year: Winter (February), Spring (April), Summer (June), Fall (September), and Holiday (November).
In between issues you can keep up to date with goings on in the mystery world and catch up on previous issues on their website.
Mystery News features interviews and articles, columns on a variety of mystery-related subjects, reviews, and previews of upcoming mysteries.
Mystery News – which has been in publication for 10 years – is published every 2 months.
They also have a website where you can access excerpts from past interviews, including the one where Phyllis Dorothy James reveals that the “P.D.” was chosen not so much to conceal her sex as to create a better book jacket graphic.
These are two great tools for finding new titles and authors to read. If you find something you would like that we don’t own, just ask for a purchase request form and we will see if we can get hold of a copy for you.
