A review by bookwyrmknits
Apex Magazine Issue 135 by Jason Sizemore, Lesley Conner
4.0
This is a really enjoyable magazine, with a little bit of something for everyone who reads the SFF genre. There's more fantasy-oriented stories, more science fiction-oriented stories, and even some stories that walk the line between SFF and horror. Nothing was too gory for my sensibilities, though I will admit that the fantasy stories were my favorites of the lot, and the horror-adjacent ones I liked the least.
“The Big Glass Box and the Boys Inside” by Isabel J. Kim and “Walking the Deep Down” by Michelle Denham were my favorites from this magazine. I enjoyed the world building and characters in both of them. The latter struck me with how much it could pack into the flash fiction format.
