Overview

Galaxy's Edge has been publishing outstanding science fiction and fantasy fiction since its inaugural issue in March 2013. The magazine's authors include seasoned veterans as well as exciting new talent from across the globe.

Whether its dragons or spaceships, magic or hard science, there is only one criterion to be published in Galaxy's Edge: it has to be a great story.

As with the last edition of the Best of, all the fiction pieces in this volume have been personally selected by the editor, Mike Resnick. These stories appeared in issues of the magazine that were published between 2015 and 2017, and include new titles by bestselling authors like Larry Niven and David Gerrold, as well as exhilarating new writers like Marina J. Lostetter and Martin L. Shoemaker.

And also, like with our previous Best of anthology, our authors all share one thing in common. They write engaging stories that will entertain you, leave you astonished, and make you think--the hallmarks of all good science fiction and fantasy.
