Dweller on the Threshold
Recommended by

Another stunning thriller from Skyla Dawn Cameron.
Personal, gritty, heart-wrenching. Everything you'd expect from the author.
Cameron wraps her stories in a familiar, 'cosy' skin that she peels away page by page to reveal the monster beneath. Her biographical approach
What's in the house? Only what you take with you.
Oh, and Fuck Greg!
Arachne
Recommended by
kevin
Arachne is an unique entry in the cyberpunk genre. It steps between the dystopia of William Gibson and the otherworldliness of Phillip K. Dick.
Full of 'almost' body-horror, corporations so mega that they transact court cases in nanoseconds, and AI characters with more spiritualism in their circuits than the humans that inhabit this post Big-One San Francisco.
A must-read for cyberpunk fans!

An interesting set of stories in the issue, with the ones by Michael Libling, Matthew Hughes, Gregor Hartmann and Marie Vibbert.
The Hellsblood Bride
Recommended by
kevin
There's weird fiction, then there's Chuck Wendig weird fiction.
In this sequel to The Blue Blazes, our gangland enforcer with a heart of gold, Mookie Pearl, must save his daughter and the whole world from the schemes of demons, demi-gods and more weird stuff before it all ends.
Call it a Chuckpocalypse, or even Wendigeddon!
Loads of fun and a must read for any Chuck Wendig fan.
INTERZONE #281 (MAY-JUN 2019)
Recommended by
sohkamyung
A rather light-weight issue with stories that probably appeal to those who prefer a more 'literary' style of SF than what I would normally read. The stories that I found interesting were by James Warner, Andy Dudak and Malcolm Devlin.
