Gallus lives up to its name with swagger and style! The Glasgow SF Writers’ Circle has long been a seedbed of talent, and this anthology is its latest riotous garden. Ken MacLeod, author of The Star Fraction and the Lightspeed trilogy
“A joy to read. From alternative worlds to haunted houses, quiet reflections to explosive fights, the short stories in Gallus are bite-sized morsels of the imagination. Glasgow’s genre scene is very much alive and kicking.” Eliza Chan, author of Fathomfolk
“Gallus is a full chocolate selection box: it’s a treat that runs the gamut from folk horror to high fantasy to twisted near-future dystopia to just plain weird, and I was here for it! This anthology has something for every SFF/H desire with a plethora of voices, styles, and subgenres: near-future magic “terrorists”, the terrible thing in the closet, plants with a mind of their own, dragons, an unexpected haunting, and so much more, with the reader curious to see what the next story will bring … and the next … and the next. The talent on display from the Glasgow Science Fiction Writers’ Circle, whether newer author or old hand, makes this writer wish she lived closer so she could join in, too!” TIffani Angus, author of Threading The Labyrinth and co-author of Spec Fic For Newbies.
“The stories thrum with myth and magic, with the intertwined rhythms of history and futurism. From hallucinatory and dreamlike to horrific snapshots, fantasy to science fiction to the slipstream, Gallus is an excellent showcase for the writing of the Glasgow SF Writers’ Circle.” CL Hellisen, author of Cast Long Shadows
