Monthly Serial Novel Magazines?

Posted by Cliff on Tuesday June 14, 2005 @08:42AM from the for-your-reading-pleasure dept.

DeeryQueen asks: "I enjoy reading both regular/text novels and Japanese graphic novels (manga), but while there are a few magazines serializing manga (a few hundred pages each month, consisting of a chapter each from many different graphic novels) with which I am familiar (such as Shonen Jump and Shojo Beat), I don't know where to start looking for US magazines which serialize text novels using this formula. I read all genres. Any recommendations?"

Analog Science Fiction & Fact runs 3 to 4 part serials pretty regularly. I don't know whether the sum of the parts would be the length of a full-blown novel, but it's something. It's a pretty effective gimmick to keep me subscribing, especially when they run a really good serial, like "Shootout at the Nokai Corral" by Rajnar Vajra.
