Really enjoying this issue. Fun to read in 2021 where some of these authors hadn't yet hit their big break while others were already quite established.

A Word Shaped Like Bones: This could almost have been in Nightmare magazine; a variant on the insanity of long-term space travel. A great subversion of my expectations.

Cuts Both Ways: A meditation on what it’s like to work intel and get scarred by the situation. The PTSD also seems an apt metaphor to what some on the autism spectrum describe as their lived reality. Plus a trans metaphor (more in my final review)

Each to Each: What makes this tale of a SF future female navy extra scary is that we’ve done stuff like this before. In this tale there are genetic modifications done to make the women better submariners (don’t want to give the plot away), but they are left with even larger breasts because that will increase the appeal for the program. At once terrifying and sweet, a great story by Ms. McGuire.
