A review by opaline
Interstellar Flight Magazine Best of Year One by

4.0

From their website: "Interstellar Flight Magazine publishes essays on science fiction and fantasy, pop culture, and geek fandom. This publication is a project of Interstellar Flight Press, a speculative publishing house."

This book is a collection of the best essays from their website from 2019. They are non-fiction and cover a really wide selection of SFF related topics, from cats in SFF to archiving SFF, and looking back at childhood favourites (Narnia books) to excerpts from SFF books.

I really enjoyed this collection and will follow the website from now on. I liked the book format as it gave me time to properly enjoy the essays, rather than just skimming as you often find yourself doing whilst watching TV (or similar) at the same time when reading a website.

It's given me lots of ideas of other SFF works to read, books, essays, short stories and more. As the book has come from web articles, it has lots of handy links so you know you're looking at the right item that they are talking about.

This would be a good gift for a SFF fan, whether that's yourself or a friend or family member!

Thank you to NetGalley and Interstellar Flight Press for the ARC in return for an unbiased review.
