Editor Donna Scott has scoured magazines, anthologies, webzines and obscure genre corners to discover the very best science fiction stories by British and British-based authors published during 2021. Two dozen stories, varying greatly in subject matter and style, from superb technological mystery to conflict on very alien worlds, from sweet, sad stories symptomatic of the tense times we have lived through to tales optimistic for better times to come, and even a dash of wry humour here and there for good measure.

Donna Scott is a director and recent chair of the BSFA, as well as being a distinguished poet, writer, and stand-up comedian. Donna is also a free-lance editor who has worked behind the scenes for a number of major publishers over the course of several years.

This ‘Deliciously Dark’ collection of stories written by Pete Sutton, tells tales themed on the counting magpies song – “One for sorrow… “ A Tiding of Magpies is an enchanting short story collection which will give you a pleasurable shiver up the spine. Whether it is waking up to unmentionable sounds in Not Alone, or taking a trip to the land of stories in Five for Silver, the surprising use of a robot butler in I, Butler or competition winners It Falls and An Unexpected Return, these thirty-one tales, ranging from tiny flash fiction to long stories of several thousand words, always entertain, even when they unnerve. These darkly fantastical tales have been published in anthologies and magazines or written especially and collected here for the first time by Kensington Gore Publishing. Pete Sutton helps organise Bristol Festival of Literature where he is well-known as ‘the genre guy.’ He writes The Bristol Book Blog - http://brsbkblog.blogspot.co.uk/ as well as edits Far Horizons Magazine - https://farhorizonsmagazine.wordpress.com/ "Pete Sutton has a talent for the fantastic." – Paul Cornell (Shadow Police series, This Damned Band, Doctor Who, Elementary) “…there is a sweet and subtle music to Sutton's stories. They take you to strange places." – Mike Carey (Lucifer, The Unwritten, The Girl with all the Gifts, Fellside) "As if Raymond Carver turned his hand to writing science fiction.” – David Gullen (Clarke Award judge)
