Roberto Mendes has been very busy, and I have been very remiss in not tweeting about it. Issue #2 of International Speculative Fiction came out just before Winterval (well, during it, as my thoroughly pagan holiday begins with the equinox). I put the email to one side then, and forgot about it. I should not have done, as the issue contains, amongst other things, fiction by Ken Liu and Lavie Tidhar, plus and interview with Rachel Haywood Ferreira. And it is free. Get it here.
Issue #3 should be with us fairly soon. The table of contents is available here, and the thing I’m really interested in is “Pulp Scifi under German, Russian, Japanese and Spanish Totalitarism” by Jess Nevins. How Jess finds out about all this stuff I do not know, but he’s always a fascinating read.
I feel honoured to be in such fine company in issue 3. 🙂
