for a long time I subscribe to both analog and Asimov 's Science fiction but recently decide to drop the Analog . the story be not as good in my opinion -lrb- as evidence by fewer award win -rrb- , and a lot of space be give over to `` fact '' article which do not much interest I , especially since a lot of the news present in those article I have already hear before . so when it come time to cut my budget , I choose to keep Asimov 's which offer approximately one more fiction story per month . of course if Asimov 's do not exist , then Analog would definitely be on my first choice . both be fine literary magazine . Analog - 4 star Asimov 's - 5 star
