“This book’s wide range of stories is its greatest strength; though no reader will love them all, every reader will find something worth rereading.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review on New Suns “A varied, rich, and delightful collection of new speculative fiction... Get hold of this excellent anthology. You won’t regret it.” —LA Review of Books on New Suns “This is a strongly balanced anthology, and a powerful one – surely one of the best original anthologies of 2019.” —Locus on New Suns “An earnest compilation of voices from many ethnicities and backgrounds, exploring their experiences as people of colour, and as marginalised people.” —Tor.com on New Suns “New Suns does more than offer a diverse group of writers of colour from different backgrounds: it also offers a diversity of the futures that can be possible in the speculative canon.” —Strange Horizons on New Suns “New Suns showcases contemporary talents with a purpose, and does so extraordinarily well. This book is one of the strongest anthologies I have read in years, and I highly recommend it!” —Future Fire on New Suns “A blockbuster miscellany.” —Aurealis “New Suns 2 offers a composite picture of the best work being done in genre fiction right now” —The Washington Post “Go get this book and enjoy it.” —Lightspeed Magazine “Shawl uses their penchant for inclusive representation to remind you of the radiance of a promised sun.” —Locus “A rich collection that offers up something for fans of science fiction, fantasy, and horror.” —AudioFile Magazine
