Bifrost 91 - Special Fictions by Collectif
As my TBR-pile is still more than large enough, I don't read SFF-magazines, let alone know which are available on the market. Sure, there is Clarkesworld, Uncanny, Asimov's, and others, but I don't really follow that kind of publication. Especially when several are only online available, not in physical form. But I do try to read some of their free, online stories now and then.

On the French side and in physical form, there's rel="nofollow" target="_top">Bifrost, Solaris (Canada) and others. As this 91th edition of the French Bifrost magazine was a special one, focusing on short stories, I decided to try it. Next to those stories, there are the traditional book and magazine reviews, plus an interview with the people behind publisher L'Arbre Vengeur, and a scientific look at the moon, i.e. in which books and films it was featured and what the current state of affairs is in terms of research. This last article is by [a:Roland Lehoucq|810109|Roland Lehoucq|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1386134521p2/810109.jpg].

This special edition of Bifrost contains the following short stories:

Voyage avec l'extraterrestre de [a:Carolyn Ives Gilman|536013|Carolyn Ives Gilman|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1368451482p2/536013.jpg] (original: Touring with the Alien, 2016; available online at Clarkesworld Magazine)

Save for Léo Henry and Ken Liu, the authors are unknown to me. The kinds of stories presented here are quite diverse, from fantasy over science fiction to horror (one way or another). I'm not going to go into detail, but it suffices to say that every one of them was an interesting and entertaining read (I did find Michel Pagel's story less attractive, though, a bit hard to see what was going on), with some food for thought.

Léo Henry and Ken Liu weren't new to me. I've previously read [b:Philip K Dick Goes to Hollywood|29225990|Philip K Dick Goes to Hollywood|Léo Henry|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1455912903s/29225990.jpg|49463405], which you can read about here (in French). His latest offering, [b:Hildegarde|40498390|Hildegarde|Léo Henry|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1528535607s/40498390.jpg|61708842], looks interesting and is on my wish-list.

Ken Liu's [b:The Paper Menagerie and Other Stories|32295221|The Paper Menagerie and Other Stories|Ken Liu|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1475009089s/32295221.jpg|44534169] was/is one of my favourite reads of all time, I must say. See my review here.

In short, a worthwhile Bifrost edition. These Frenchies know their SFF-stuff.… (more)
