Blurb:

The commercial categories we denominate fantasy, science fiction and horror don't traditionally exist in Latin America. Instead, the fantastical is either simply called literature or receives the moniker of magical realism.
[i]
This means finding speculative fiction is trickier and more complex in this part of the world. It also means that Latinx authors may derive their SFF canon from a very different well than their Anglo counterparts. While science fiction and fantasy are normally associated with Tolkien or Asimov, a Latinx writer might be more inclined to think of Isabel Allende or Julio Cortázar. At the same time, it is not unusual for Latinx authors to have also been exposed to Anglo pop culture, fantasy and science fiction. Finally, since Latin America is a large region, the history, culture and folklore of Latinx writers may be radically different from one another.[/i]

The Strangers in Strange Lands Bundle,

Blurb:

The Strangers in Strange Lands Bundle, curated by author, acclaimed editor, and indie publisher Athena Andreadis unveils a panorama of twelve riveting works that reconnoiter a core tenet of science fiction in all its ramifications and flourishes: encountering others.

A saying widely attributed to Dostoyevsky states there are just two stories: "Someone goes on a journey" and "A stranger comes to town". This is even truer of science fiction, which constantly tests the boundaries of these two foundational narratives: what might humans become elsewhere/elsewhen? And what others might we encounter when we leave the safety of our planetary cradle—or even the safety of our comfort zones?

Read these and encounter the as yet unknown soon to be named.

The Science Fiction and Fantasy Satire Bundle


Blurb:

Satire runs through the field of science fiction/fantasy like veins of gold in the Earth. Both genres have their origin with Lucian's A True Story, which parodied the various epics and myths known to educated readers in the second century AD, and which featured a trip to the moon, interplanetary warfare, and philosophical analysis of some rigor. Even the title is both satirical and an exercise in logic—the text of the story is all lies, Lucian admits, but the work is a true story because it exists in the category of story: it is true that it is a story.

The LGBT+ Fantasy Bundle

Blurb:

Two years ago, I asked the folks at StoryBundle if I could do a queer fantasy bundle to celebrate Pride. The next year, I asked if I could do it again, only with science fiction, and both times they were happy to oblige. This year, I'm back with yet another queer-themed bundle to celebrate Pride month. I'm focussing on fantasy again this year, and, as in both previous years, there has been an embarrassment of riches. Some of my favorite authors have new work, and I found a bunch more who were new to me, and whose work is intelligent, sensitive, nuanced, and queer. As always, there was no easy way to winnow things down.

The Cities of Magic Bundle


Blurb:
Let's talk about Urban Fantasy, shall we? If you're like me, it probably took you many years of reading before you encountered a book specifically labeled "Urban Fantasy." On the surface, the genre seems self-explanatory. We know what fantasy stories are, and we're all familiar with urban settings, so these are simply fantasy stories in urban settings. One might even be excused for believing that such a label would lead to a fairly limited variety of stories that fit the bill.

The 2019 World SF Bundle

Blurb:

The success of last year's World SF Bundle was such that I got the opportunity to put together a second one. Jeannette Ng's Under The Pendulum Sun blew me away straight off the gate – I begged the publishers for an advance reading copy before it was ever published, and wasn't disappointed. It's one of the most original takes on Fairyland in years. A friend introduced me to Saad Z. Hossain's Escape From Baghdad!, and again, this was such a fabulous debut novel – and so funny! – that I knew I had to include it if I just got the chance.
