5.0 out of 5 stars 3rd Sci-fi Magazine for Kindle Subscription! June 5, 2011

By Jeremy Carroll

Clarkesworld is the 3rd Sci=fi magazine available for Kindle subscription service, right behind Asimov's and Analog, and it looks great.

The subscription issue(s)has a well laid out format, with an easy to navigate menu along with a progress bar to show where you are within the story/article that you are reading. The cover art is still viewable on the kindle but, since the kindle isn't in color, it does loose some of its vibrancy. With the kindle app on my Droid X, however, the cover art looks amazing.

I wished there were more stories in each issue, but since Clarkesworld is offered free on their website I can see why that is so. Content costs money. The editor, Neil Clarke, says in the current issue's editorial that if the magazine can reach 500 subscribers by October 2011 then they will add a third story. That is good news!

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing! June 24, 2011

By Princess of Mars

I signed up for the free trial of the magazine on a whim, but I will definitely be keeping this subscription! There are 2 fiction stories in each issue. The two in the current issue (June 2011) are amazing. Both of them were incredibly well written and transported me to different worlds.

There is also a non-fiction article and an author interview in the issue.

5.0 out of 5 stars As a Time-Challenged Parent, this Is the Magazine I Read the Most September 4, 2012

By Scott Kennedy

About a year ago, to try to catch up with the current state of SF&F writing, I began subscribing to a number of SF&F magazines: Asimov's, Analog, Lightspeed, Apex, and Clarkesworld. While there is a treasure of fine writing in all of these magazines, Clarkesworld is the one that I consistently find myself reading cover-cover, without skipping or abandoning a story or article halfway through. Of course, many of those other magazines are a great deal longer, so it's not a particularly fair comparison. But if you're a busy parent like I am, with limited reading time, I'd just like to say you can't go wrong with Clarkesworld. It's a great way to spend your spare minutes.
