Interzone 305 is here!

For the evening algorithm — Supernova looks at short fiction from the UK (ish) scene, often not reviewed in venues like @locusmag.bsky.social (Hi Locus!). Our latest review is Interzone, but we cover Parsec, Mythaxis, Wyldblood, and soon, Shoreline of Infinity. supernova.reviews/2026/07/10/i...

I decided that Alan was putting me to shame with all of his reviews for Supernova, so I got back on the horse and wrote about the brilliant latest issue of Interzone. Spoiler: it's smashing, couldn't pick a favourite, they're all my favourites.

Interzone #304

Oh gosh, it's been months since this issue of Interzone came out, but luckily the next one isn't quite out the door, so I've still got time to tell you how much I enjoyed one of the best spec-fit (or fantastika, as IZ puts it) magazines out there.

Alan took a gander at the latest edition of Parsec. Parsec is edited by veteran author, editor and publisher Ian Whates and it won the British Fantasy Award for best periodical in 2025. All of which is to say, if you're not subscribing, why not? Tell them Supernova sent you…

Parsec #15 (Winter 2026)

Perhaps a case of "too little too late", but Mythaxis (and many of our 2025 stories, in both text and audio formats) are eligible as candidates for the British Fantasy Awards – with voting open until... er, well, tomorrow! britishfantasysociety.org/voting-opens...

Interzone 304 is out. Not sure if that’s been noticed now that they’re not on social media. Am reading the first story, by @vallescurarule.bsky.social “County Colours” and it is very good… Why is part of Ireland in Japan? interzone.press. Review to follow when I get through the issue

On co-reviewer's Alan's recommendation, I read @robgillham.bsky.social's "This Sepulchral Aegis" in @clarkesworldmagazine.com and it is terrific! That's our bonus recommendation for this week. A dark clash of minds and technologies on a generation ship... clarkesworldmagazine.com/gillham_12_25/

Alan reviews Wyldblood 16 @wyldblood.bsky.social and asks why you're not subscribing to this excellent publication! Standout story this time from @robgillham.bsky.social but they're all great!

Wyldblood #17

Finally pulled my finger out to review the latest Wyldblood, which is, as ever, a mixture of strange and interesting stories.

So late, so late. Just finishing off my review of @interzone.press #301 and #302 is already out! Short version is - it's fab. Particularly recommend amazing stories by @coreyjwhite.com and @ashleystokes.bsky.social which I have struggled to do justice to in the review. Pls standby

The Creator by Aliya Whiteley

(Newcon Press 2025) The new novella by 2025 BSFA award-winner Aliya Whiteley is expertly written – it's a pastiche of those mid-century country house novels married to a couple of pulpy genre plots, and it all fits together really well. There’s not a moment wasted here. While her Three-Eight-One still puzzles me, it’s the kind of puzzle I want to solve rather than abandon.

A Tiding of Magpies / Pete W. Sutton.

One of the questions I ask when reviewing a single author anthology is ‘what’s special about it?’ There are plenty of story collections that are perfectly good but nonetheless fail to create that frisson of intrigue that makes them shine. In Pete W. Sutton's A Tiding of Magpies, reissued last year with extra stories, I felt that mental ‘shiver’ a few times.

Alan really enjoyed the latest issue of WYLDBLOOD magazine. Find out which stories stood out by reading our latest review.

This is another strong issue of Wyldblood, with a good mixture of fantasy and sci-fi.

It seems that Supernova has been longlisted in the Best Short Non Fiction category of the @bsfa.bsky.social awards. Thank you to whoever nominated us, we really appreciate it.

So sad to see another short fiction magazine closing. Hexagon published a lot of great stories, which takes a lot of energy and effort, we salute them for all of their hard work across 20 issues.
