Dennis More

This issue Ted White laments the passing of rising star Thomas Burnett Swann (1928–1976), who succumbed to a second bout with cancer on May 5, 1976. White announced plans to publish Swann’s untitled “prequel” to Day of the Minotaur and The Forest of Forever in a future issue, but it seems a wish never unfulfilled.

A sentence from Ted White’s editorial in this issue seems quite relevant to the current situation in Washington on this Friday the 13th:

“”Basically, we each bring our own attitudes to what we read—and we read the same things very differently.”
