juan antonio garcia (Sevilla, Spain) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The A-Z of Science Fiction and Fantasy Films (Paperback)

Es la primera enciclopedia que aborda el mundo completo de lo "fantástico" ,a diferencia de otras, que tocan el horror y la ciencia ficcion separadamente. Muy recomendable para los que lo quieran tener todo en un solo volumen
