You only *think* you’ve read all the SF Masterworks. Posted at 12:03 PM by Dave Post

The other day I stumbled upon a SF Masterworks cover that I had not seen before and I thought I aught to see what new ones had come out since our last update. Lo and behold, I found 12 new ones! That brings our list up to 114, not counting any reprints in the new un-numbered series.

I often wonder why these seem to come out with no fanfare but I’ve gotten used to the idea that the publisher, Gollancz (Orion Books), doesn’t really care about promoting this series. Seriously, go to their web site and see if you can find any info on it. I can’t find anything at all – not even a simple list of titles in the series. There was a Masterworks page at one time but it didn’t survive their site re-design a few years ago. Wikipedia to the rescue!

If anyone from Gollancz is listening, I’d like very much to get more official information on this series, please.
