Fantasy fiction magazine


A fantasy fiction magazine or fantasy magazine is a magazine
which publishes primarily fantasy fiction. Not generally included in
the category are magazines for children with stories about such
characters as Santa Claus. Also not included are adult magazines
about sexual fantasy. Many fantasy magazines, in addition to fiction,
have other features such as art, cartoons, reviews, or letters from
readers. Some fantasy magazines also publish science fiction and
horror fiction, so there is not always a clear distinction between a
fantasy magazine and a science fiction magazine. For example,
Fantastic magazine published almost exclusively science fiction for
much of its run.
