The Apex Book of World SF: Volume 5

Recommended by
sohkamyung
A wonderful collection of speculative fiction from around the world. Ranging from Asia to Africa, Europe to the Americas, you will find much to like in many of the stories featured. My favourites include those by Vina Jie-Min Prasad, T.L. Huchu, Taiyo Fujii, Vandana Singh, Bo-young Kim, Chi Hui, Karla Schmidt and Giovanni De Feo.

The Things We Carve

Recommended by
kevin
What a fantastic book!
Gorgeously illustrated. I loved the limited use of colour to introduce a new character and their different ideas.
At the end the artist describes how they always run to topics on creativity when they're lost in their own creative journey. This book speaks to craftspeople everywhere.
A stunning find I was lucky to come across at the ShortBox Comics Fair.

Between the Scanlines - Issue 1

Recommended by
kevin
I love a good zine! And Between the Scanlines hits the sweet spot for me; not too long that it stretches each issue, yet filled with plenty of retro gaming info.
Sasha and Kit are doing amazing work here. Buy as many issues as you can, and fill your eyes with gaming goodness with a lovely helping of personality and passion!

Let's Play White

Recommended by
sakina
Thoughtful collection of tales that stay with you for months afterwards. Beautifully written, sensitively conceived, a series of set ups for injustices, love, and pain with a backdrop of the Black cultural experience in a white-oriented world.

Nine Goblins

Recommended by
kevin
What a fantastically fun read.
This novella was my first experience of T. Kingfisher's books, and I'll now be buying any and all the others I can get my hands on.
The lovably ragtag troop of goblins comprising the Whining Niners make the Fellowship of the Ring seem like some dull kids on a Sunday school outing. And I have to say, the Bear is my favourite.
Go read it. A light, fast story.

Dispersion

Recommended by
sohkamyung
A fascinating tale set in a world where people are physically separated into six factions. To one faction, members of other factions can be physically invisible. But now a deadly disease called the Dispersion is affecting their bodies, making them become part of another faction. And it's up to a group of scientists to figure out how their world works and how the Dispersion affects them.

Under the Skin

Recommended by
sakina
A light, fun read with a barrel full of creep

Coeur d'Alene Waters

Recommended by
kevin
Filled with flawed characters, a corrupt police force, bought and manipulated by a wealthy local family; it's a rich background to the main tale of redemption, coming to terms and moving on.
Slow in parts, it is however, a worthwhile read in itself, serving as an insight into the mining communities of the region and their demise as a local industry and employer.

The Book of All Skies

Recommended by
sohkamyung
An interesting journey of discovery through a world of many skies

The Outskirter's Secret

Recommended by
kevin
The amazing second book in what is, so far, an outstanding fantasy series.
The Outskirter's Secret expands on the concepts in the first book, but takes us out of the relative safety of the Inner Lands and into the wilderness of the Outskirts.
I can't believe I've only just started reading this series and am already on the third book.
Still a MUST READ.
