Fantasy Newsletter - 1980

This publication recounts both recently published and expected publications in the fantasy field, including books, magazines and the fan press. Many illustrations are from the fantasy publications reviewed. Also presents information on appropriate conventions and other topics of interest to fantasy fans, including photos. Beginning with this volume, book reviews, interviews with fantasy authors and regular opinion essays are also included.

Volume 3 marked the transition of this publication from a fanzine presenting genre news to a "semiprozine" accepting advertising, with added covers and additional pages. Regular essays by a number of authors were added, as was some fiction and fantasy artwork. Paul Allen continued to write most of the news essays, but was still only credited as publisher. Price per issue was tripled.
