...a highly readable introduction and guide to a genre of literature that may not be well known to many readers, and quite useful for those who may wish to expand their familiarity with the genre into areas of which they might not be aware. This would be an excellent reader advisory resource for any library with a sizable fiction-reading population, and is also suitable for academic libraries with a strong literature collection. * American Reference Books Annual *
