Additional information
by Donna Scott (Editor), Lavie Tidhar (Author), Anne Charnock (Author)
The latest volume in the BSFA Award-winning series. Editor Donna Scott has been rigorously selecting and rejecting stories by British and Irish authors, setting aside the good in order to produce a volume of the very good. Twenty-one outstanding stories gleaned from anthologies, collections, websites and magazines (including Analog, Asimov's, Clarkesworld, ParSec, Uncanny, Apex, Shorelines of Infinity, and more), representing some of the very best science fiction published in 2025, all gathered within the covers of one book.
