Lightspeed Magazine, September 2018

In the pages of Lightspeed Magazine, you will find the finest science fiction: from near-future, sociological soft SF, to far-future, star-spanning hard SF-and fantasy: from epic fantasy, sword-and-sorcery, and contemporary urban tales, to magical realism, science-fantasy, and folktales.Issue #1 was launched in June 2010, and now eight years later, we've reached a milestone: Issue 100. To celebrate, we decided to publish a super-sized issue, with ten original stories-more than twice the amount of original fiction than usual-plus ten reprints and some special nonfiction to boot. And to make things even more commemorative, the vast majority of our fiction in this issue, both original and reprint, comes from our most frequently published fiction contributors-the Lightspeediest writers to ever Lightspeed. It's a distillation of what we're made of, and we're beyond excited to share it with all of you.Featuring work by Vylar Kaftan, Carrie Vaughn, Adam-Troy Castro, A. Merc Rustad, Ken Liu, Sofia Samatar, Charles Yu, Caroline M. Yoachim, An Owomoyela, Seanan McGuire, David Barr Kirtley, Genevieve Valentine, Cadwell Turnbull, Yoon Ha Lee, Maria Dahvana Headley, Sam J.
