Encounters

by Jessica Augustsson (Editor), Johannes Svensson, Tom Lindahl

Ever since Robinson found a stranger's footprint on his solitary island, literature—and especially Science Fiction and Fantasy literature—has been fascinated by meeting the Other. In Encounters, the second speculative fiction anthology by JayHenge Publishing, you can find out what happens when different species, populations, times—or even objects—meet.

About the author

Jessica Augustsson is the editor-in-chief of JayHenge Publishing. She is a grammar nerd, eclipse chaser, part-time writer, and a bit of a geek. As the editor of spec-fic anthologies, most of her writing can be found nestled among the words of other authors, but she can’t help typing out a few of her own stories now and then. As for speculative fiction in her own life, she was voted by her Idaho high school class to be the most likely to go live on the moon; when she was 20, she moved to Sweden so she guesses that’s pretty close.

Reviews

[Aaron Speer · Rating 4 out of 5]

Some really excellent stories here, from left field and even further, which is right up my alley.
Short story anthologies are a bit hit and miss for me usually. This was, I was pleasantly surprised to find, funny, creepy and charming, and you didn't know which you were going to get from one story to the next.
But that's the point is it not?
