Summary: As with many magazines, you can flip through the pages and read what catches the eye. Or scan the table of contents and go for specific essays. This volume has articles of various kind - everyone will get their good share of enjoyable information. My highlight - and the reason why I requested this ARC - was Holly Walrath's "The Ones Who Walk Away", an essay about Ursula K. Le Guin's famous utopia "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas" (and Jemisin's counter-story). The article about Libra

Interesting magazine. I thought I give it a shout out since it doesn’t appear to me of being well known. This is magazine take the anthology mag format but adapt it to non-fiction so you get interview with authors, essays, excerpts and stuff like that around the sff world. The team behind it seem to do a decent job and if this is something that you’re into then have a look. Not sure how many or how often they published. It seem fairly new (might be the first one) but I could be wrong. It’s also

Great collection of cutting-edge writing.
Thanks to NetGalley for providing me with a copy in return for an honest review.
I was a little hesitant with this collection when I realized it was essays and not short stories. However, there were a lot of really interesting articles and interviews here and I feel like I learned quite a bit about the SFF community. While all of the articles and interviews are well written, a reader's enjoyment of the content here is definitely going to depend on their familiarity and interest in the subject bef ...more

One thing I've always enjoyed when I've subscribed to SF magazines is the material in addition to the fiction: interviews, think pieces, and writing on the genre in general - wonderful articles that are rarely, if ever, anthologized. No more! This collection of SF nonfiction from Interstellar Flight Press is highly enjoyable and has added a host of new authors to my "to read" shelf.

I read this book as a pre-release e-book obtained through NetGalley, provided by the publisher.
This book is 18 “short stories”, and 3 excerpts of upcoming stories. These are not really stories – except for the excerpts. There is something for everyone here – interstellar chocolate, interviews with authors, writings by authors, sociological discussions about elements in stories – from cats to ghosts to earthquakes, to diversity among writers, to how science fiction particularly parallels social c ...more
