He does articles for what used to be called *Fantasy Newsletter* but is now something like *Fantasy and Science Fiction Book Review*, a very good review magazine published by the English department of one of the Florida universities. I read the first installment of *The Aquiliad* in *Analog(?)* and wasn't very impressed, but I've heard good things about *Mallworld* and plan to start *Vampire Junction* soon (I love the cover painting). The "S. P. Somtow" is designed to sell more books, since the general public, unlike(?) science fiction readers, apparently won't buy a book by someone whose name they can't pronounce. Saw him wandering through Philadelphia's bid party at LACon in some sort of Eastern garb, and he seemed a decent sort.
