Mystery Readers Journal is a quarterly thematic mystery Journal. Each issue contains articles, reviews, and author essays on a specific theme, as well as special columns, a calendar of events, and other mystery related material. Journals run an average of 80 pages. Current Issue: History Mysteries II Coming Up: San Francisco Bay Area Mysteries; Mysteries Set in Ireland; Crime for the Holidays; African Mysteries; Theatre Mysteries.

History Mysteries II Supplements: PDF Supplement: This one is the straight format, pages in order, readable online or on your computer, or printable page-by-page.
PDF Supplement, Book Format: This file is for printing out a booklet that you can staple together and put on your shelf with your Journals. You will need to use legal-size paper (8.5 x 14"). Print the odd pages first, then flip the stack over and print the even pages in reverse order on the backs of the odd pages. You can make these selections in the Acrobat printing window. (When you print the first set, be sure to observe whether the head of the page comes out on the left or the right, and feed the pages correctly for the second printing.) Fold the stack down the middle and the pages should come out in the correct order.

Recent Issues: The Ethnic Detective, Part I (Spring 2007); The Ethnic Detective, Part II (Summer 2007); Scandinavian Mysteries (Fall 2007); History Mysteries I (Winter 2007-2008). Subscribe to the Journal or find out how to submit an article!
