These are hard copies forwarded at the journal's expense, = so are geographically limited to North American reviewers. * Gothic Remixed: Monster Mashups and Frankenfictions in 21st-Century C= ulture by Megan De Bruin-Mol=E9 * Dark Forces at Work: Essays on Social Dynamics an d Cinematic Horrors= edited by Cynthia Miller and A. Bowdoin van Riper. * The Harry Potter Generation: Essays on Growing Up with the Series, ed= ited by Emily Lauer and Balaka Basu * Suburban Fantastic Cinema: Growing Up in the Late Twentieth Century = by Angus McFadzean * Playing Dystopia: Nightmarish Worlds in Video Games and the Player's = Aesthetic Response by Gerald Farca The following two titles are new contributions to the Modern Masters of Sci= ence Fiction series from the University of Illinois Press. I'd love to find= someone to do both of these together as a double review, but also am accep= ting applications to review one or the other alone: * Joanna Russ by Gwyneth Jones * Kim Stanley Robinsonby Robert Markley The following four titles are all part of Auteur Press Devil's Advocates se= ries. I'm particularly keen to find someone interested in reviewing all fou= r together as part of a substantive review essay. Failing that, I also welc= ome applications to review a pair as a double review: * Scream by Steven West * The Devils by Darren Arnold * Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me by Lindsay Hallam * House of Usher by Evert Jan van Leeuwen The following four titles are all part of Auteur Press's "Constellations" s= eries. What I'm ideally looking for is someone to do a review essay--that i= s, to review them together in a substantive essay that situates them in rel= ation to the current field of science fiction studies. * Blade Runner by Sean Redmond * Inception by David Carter * Close Encounters of the Third Kind by Jon Towlson * Robocop by Omar Ahmed * The Damned by Nick Riddle Interested parties should email [email protected] and briefly out= line qualifications. PLEASE DO NOT RESPOND TO THE LIST. JFA asks for revi= ews of 1200-1500 words (single reviews) within roughly 3 months of receipt = of the title.
