A review by maxturner
Futures by Angela Caravan

4.0

Disclaimer: I have a story published in this anthology, however I am reviewing based on the other stories only.

This is a fascinating anthology in terms of format, with a combination of fiction, poetry, non-fiction and essays. As someone who usually only goes for fiction anthologies, this was an interesting and enjoyable change and it definitely feels like there is something in here for everyone with a variety of interpretations of the theme: investigating the idea of the future in various forms.

The contributions themselves are diverse and rarely give the same point of view, which is nice. My personal favourites were the beautifully haunting "A Sky Made Black" by Daniel James Clark and the whimsical "Peter Cushing Rides A Bicycle" by Nadia Steven Rysing. I'm not a huge poetry fan but I also found something compelling about "Etymology" by Pasiphaƫ Dreams.
