Shipments of the Year’s Best Australian Fantasy and Horror 2011 have just gone out to pre-order customers, and soon another gorgeous tome shall grace my bragshelf. My killer kangaroo story “Hunting Rufus” can be found therein, but why stop there? If it’s anything like last year’s volume, you will get:
- more stories than you can poke a stick at. This year, it’s 32 stories from the brains of top-notch Aussie genre writers.
- a great introductory essay giving an overview of Australian writing for the year – in my opinion this was worth the price of entry for the last volume.
- A wider recommended reading list than just the stories in the book…this will help the completists amongst you to track down new quality reading material.
- And a gorgeous cover apparently haunted by the still alive and kicking Kirstyn McDermott. Yeah, it’s just a passing resemblance. Still, the poor lady is going to hear about this for aaaages 🙂
So, what are you waiting for? Go and order you some delightful fiction via the links below. And as the title suggest, it’s only the best stuff, so there’s no filler here.
