Hexagon’s Year Five Anthology is now available to all subscribers! 🧡 For as low as $1, you could be enjoying everything Hexagon published in its fifth year, marvelling at fantastic cover art, and gasping for air as you drown in never before seen concept art.

Hexagon’s Year Five Anthology cover features a human with long hair rising from a mangrove river with an enormous red snake watching ominously behind them.

Edited by JW Stebner.

Hey, psst— it’s not too late. For the dream, for the love, for the second chance (or third, or fourth or, or, or), for the something different, for the choice, for the change, for recovery. It is not too late.
