It’s been out a little while already, but I only just got around to checking out the latest edition of Fantastika journal.
![Fantastika Issues – FANTASTIKA JOURNAL](https://i0.wp.com/fantastikajournal.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/Fantastika-Journal-Vol-5-Issue-1-Front-Cover.jpg?resize=368%2C521&ssl=1)
It’s especially gratifying to see oneself mentioned, not only in Chiara Crosignani’s conference report about “Fantastic Religions and Where to Find Them”, from Genzano a couple of years ago, but also in Derek Thiess’s imaginative and very current article about preppers and the apocalypse.
As always, there’s a bumper smorgasbord of non-realist writing to be enjoyed, from the Gothic to SF, from Britain’s haunted forests to Stanislaw Lem. Over 280 pages in fact!
I’m personally saving up, like a child hoarding his easter egg, their review of the Korean SF anthology Readymade Bodhisattva for after I finish reading the collection.
Fantastika is always an excellent read, and in these days of outrageous access charges for academic research, it’s delightfully free to read.
So go read it!
