Lightspeed Magazine, June 2014: Women Destroy Science Fiction! Special Edition by Christie Yant

A wonderful collection. Unfortunately I'm adding this review many months after reading it, so my memory has become spotty, but I'll say that none of the stories or essays disappointed. There was a great deal of variety along all possible axes, and the book turned me on to some new authors I wasn't aware of before. I absolutely recommend picking this up and reading it!
I'd like to specifically call out "The Hymn Of Ordeal, No. 23" by Rhiannon Rasmussen. Definitely my favourite piece of the set in terms of writing and language - beautiful, haunting, absolutely lovely. It's also very short, and I hear it's been adapted to a comic too.
