ELLERY QUEEN/ALFRED HITCHCOCK


The big two magazines for crime and mystery lovers are on the bookshelves.

Ellery Queen this issue is another double that covers the months of Sep/Oct while Alfred Hitchcock is a single with the cover date October 2008.

Lately Ellery Queen has been topping Hitchcock in the cover image stakes with the former boasting a colourful pulp style picture of a red head being terrorised by a gunman. Whilst the Hitchcock has a rather bland if moody picture of a bunch of sykscrapers.

The Contents is both are up to the usual high standards. Not for nothing are these the two crime magazines that writers love to be published in.
