A review by barbarahowe
Year's Best Aotearoa New Zealand Science Fiction and Fantasy, Vol. 1 by Octavia Cade, Melanie Harding-Shaw, Grant Stone, Sean Monaghan, M. Darusha Wehm, Andi C. Buchanan, Marie Hodgkinson, James Rowland, A.J. Fitzwater, J.C. Hart, Isabelle McNeur, Toni Wi, Dave Moore, Mark English

4.0

Nice variety, ranging in time from historic Venice (The Glassblower's Peace by James Rowland) to post-apocalypse Earth (Logistics by A. J. Fitzwater), in space from local New Zealand (Te Ika by J. C. Hart) to Mars (A Most Elegant Solution By M. Darusha Wehm), and in tone from horror to optimistic sci-fi. Something for everyone.

Will be looking forward to the next collection.
