Shimmer Magazine is one of my favorite sources of short fiction. Always
pushing the limits, engaging and challenging I am thrilled every time I see
another issue of Shimmer Magazine. It is true that I did not cover this
wonderful magazine, together with Black
Static and Shadows & Tall Trees,
to the best of my possibilities and very often the reviews I wished to write
for its issues were forgotten in a tangle of crazy working and personal schedule,
but I do have a plan for these wonderful magazines, including the back issues. Before
setting such a personal goal however, I still need to make sure that it is
possible at this moment. Anyway, Shimmer Magazine is releasing its 17th
issue this summer and features, coincidentally or not, 17 stories. And after
publishing writers such as Aliette de Bodard, Angela Slatter, Cate Gardner, Lisa
Hannett, Stephanie Campisi, Karin Tidbeck, Alex Dally MacFarlane, Amal El
Mohtar, Genevieve Valentine, A.C. Wise, Silvia Moreno-Garcia and Lavie Tidhar,
just to name some of my favorites, Shimmer Magazine brings in the latest issue new
stories from the already mentioned Alex Dally MacFarlane, A.C. Wise, Silvia
Moreno-Garcia and Lavie Tidhar, but also from Damien Walters Grintalis, whose
stories I read so far were very interesting, including her novel “Ink”. It
looks like Shimmer Magazine will make the upcoming summer even more pleasant.
