An Author Checklist where we detail the books of a single author that captured the attention of collectors. It's the best reason to file your copies away for future reference. We include specific descriptions and estimated prices for First Editions. We also include an estimate of the print run, details of all known prepublication copies, and even the most obscure awards. Our First Firsts section lists all forthcoming First Novels and First short story collections.
First books are often the toughest to find once an author hits it big.
Each listing tells you whether the author will be on tour signing books, the expected publication month, and other details. We highlight the titles we expect to get the best review and bookseller attention. Award news you can't find in any mainstream media and very seldom in your literary or review magazine of choice. This is another terrific reason to file your Issues away for future reference. We even offer our own opinions and predictions of the finalists for the major awards, such as the Natinoal Book Awards and the National Book Critics' Circle Awards.
