5.0 out of 5 stars
Best of the Bunch, February 11, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Factsheet Five Zine Reader: The Best Writing from the Underground World of Zines (Paperback)
This is the best of the glut of zine anthologies that came out a couple years ago. Worth the price of the book is Sky Ryan's adventures as a gutter punk, roaming the west coast. This is what zines are really supposed to be like.

5.0 out of 5 stars
secrets of the universe, February 22, 2006
This review is from: The Factsheet Five Zine Reader: The Best Writing from the Underground World of Zines (Paperback)
Zine writers tend to do best uncovering secret histories: hobo graffiti tales by freight-hopping filmmaker Bill Daniel, or writing about the street ear-cleaners of New Delhi, or where to find brand-new karaoke machines in Japan for free (and why this happens). 8-tracks and those insane Jack T. Chick pamphlets are also nicely covered. Some parts are not as interesting, but this reflects the huge range of interests covered in this anthology.
