Do any science fiction book subscriptions exist anymore with reasonably good quality books? About 10 years ago I was able to subscribe to a year of Angry Robot books for about $120 or $150. It wasn’t a bad deal as I remember I got about 24 books for the price.

Asimov’s and Analog magazines still exist. Short stories, not book length, tho’.

Good point. I do prefer books over short stories though.
