An Anthology of Recent Queer Science Fiction and Fantasy from
Award-Winning Editor Paula Guran Speculative fiction imagines
drastically diverse ways of being and worlds that are other than
the one with which we are familiar. Queerness is a natural fit for
such fiction, so one would expect it to be customarily included.
That has not always been the case, but LGBTQ+ representation in
science fiction and fantasy-in both short and long form-is now
relatively common. Even so, most of the queer science fiction and
fantasy anthologies published in the last thirty-five years have
been narrowly focused: specifically gay male or lesbian (or, more
recently, transgender) themes, or all science fiction or all
fantasy, or adhering to a specific theme or subgenre. Far Out:
Recent Queer Science Fiction and Fantasy, on the other hand,
features both science fiction and fantasy short fiction from the
last decade and includes characters, perspectives, and stories that
span the rainbow. With stories from incredible authors ranging from
Seanan McGuire to Charlie Jane Anders to Sam J. Miller, it's an
essential read for anyone interested in queer science fiction and
fantasy. Contents Introduction: Over the Rainbow and into the Far
