The Colored Lens Magazine, Issue 47, Spring 2023

by Dawn Lloyd (Editor), Daniel Scott (Editor), Dan Peacock

The goal of speculative fiction has always been to examine the real world through the lens of the imaginary. By considering what could be, we gain a better understanding of what is. The Colored Lens strives to do exactly that. By publishing short stories and serialized novellas every quarter in genres ranging from fantasy, to science fiction, to slipstream or magical realism, we hope to help our readers see the world just a bit differently than before they came to us. Featuring works by George S. Walker, RS Mandel, Dan Peacock, Christine Amsden, Erin L. Swann, Julie K. Savage, Lynne Inouye, David Whitmarsh, A.P. Golub, and Kidd Wadsworth. Edited by Dawn Lloyd and Daniel Scott. Henry Fields, Senior Editor.

[George S. Walker · Rating 5 out of 5]

One thing that struck me about this issue was the eclectric mix of story settings. From space arks to hangman's gallows to portal worlds to fairy cat villages to dystopian war battlefields.
Disclaimer: I have a story in here as well. (It's the first one, which you read when you click on Amazon's "Look inside".)
