I was very pleased to hear that Utopia SF wanted to include my story “Journey to Anasta” (published in the fall of 2021 in Volume 3, Issue 2) in their 5th anniversary anthology. The anthology, which is available exclusively in print, is now available to order.
As described by the publishers:
Utopia is not the end of progress, but the first step on an even bigger journey. Dare to leap into a world where hope defines us.
Utopia Science Fiction Magazine’s mission is to publish stories that shine with a more optimistic future, one we all want to believe in. This anthology collects some of the best stories published from 2019-2023.
Included in this special five year anthology are exclusive interviews with staff and volunteers, introductions to the stories and poems by the authors themselves, and interviews with amazing talent such as James Gurney and Joe Haldeman. This book also includes gorgeous new artwork commissioned especially for this anthology.
