Solarpunk Creatures

Solarpunk Creatures is a collection of stories and art set in a solarpunk setting and exploring the possibilities of how different organisms can live together. The contributors to this anthology include a collective, published authors from a variety of cultures, and artists who focus on sustainability.
Threadloom by N. R. M. Roshak is a story about an artistic loombeest who wants to make new creations while the grandmother who owns them wants to make a traditional quilt and the granddaughter wants to make the loombeest happy.
My favorite was An Inconvenient Unicorn by Geraldine Briony Hunt, an exploration of giving the land back to nature and the creatures who were previously there when corporations actually follow through with their goals to prioritize the environment.
Other stories include the journey of a comet, a roomba who achieves sentience and wants to be a shepherd, and humans who are connected to different species to keep the peace and create a utopia. Many of the art pieces are explorations of different ideas of what a solarpunk world could look like.
I would recommend this to fans of solarpunk and those who want to dip their toes into the subgenre.
