Aurealis #174

Aurealis does it again in this issue with a full-to-the-brim magazine of science fiction, fantasy and horror. Dirk Strasser looks at the growing wave of historical fantasy (or histasy) publishing in his editorial, and our non-fiction includes 'Hiding Your Gender: The Politics of Gender in the SF Publishing Industry' by Lynne Lumsden Green, 'Adventures in Literary Forensics: Chandler’s Lost Stories' by Steve Davidson, and a cluster of incisive and entertaining reviews. As always, however, the short stories are the real stars. This time, Joe Ford's 'Forever', Michael Zeit's 'Lucy' and A T Sayre's 'You Look a Lot Like Aton Fuller' are twinkling in the firmament, illuminated by spec fic's top illustrators. Enjoy the spectacle!
