A two-sentence horror story based on a picture I took. “Every year on the 1st of October at 3:17 am, someone in the apartment complex awakens to a woman’s voice calling them into the night. And every year the groundskeeper goes out the next day to open that ancient furnace in back of the yard to clean out the fresh pile of white ash lying on the bottom.”

Clearly the throne of a city-dwelling werewolf king from a 90s urban fantasy paperback.

Been wanting to do some more book reviews when I finally get some time. So here’s my review of Astrovitae magazine issue 2

Astrovitae is a magazine devoted to creators in the speculative fiction subgenre of speculative biology. Though people have imagined fantastic beasts and beings since the beginning of our species, speculative biology focuses on developing organisms using our current knowledge of biology, ecology, physics, geology, and other sciences. Though even within these limits there is a wide spectrum, as some creators may work with strict hard science rules while others prefer to design fantastic beasts closer to myth and folklore.

This second issue of Astrovitae shows significant refinement from the already impressive first issue.

There is a new section on speculative biology news featuring interviews, YouTube videos, Kickstarters, and new projects. It’s a good way to keep abreast of the bewildering variety of speculative projects out there. This issue also features the first of a regular book review column, beginning with Christian Cline’s The Teeming Universe.

Collaborative projects are the focus of issue two, with articles on the online Discord-based Specposium convention, the Project Sil Discord, and a preview of Almost Real magazine. The latter showcases the Keraunoplast, fascinating slime mold-like organism that feeds directly on electricity and can actually bond with old space junk to form cybernetic life forms.

This issue came out in September 2021, and it’s fascinating to see how the imposed quarantine of the Covid pandemic and the subsequent burst of more online communication through Discord, Instagram and other social media has led to the birth of so many new speculative biology projects.

Hyperlinks embedded in the Pdf pages are a really useful feature. Readers can click an article’s byline to go to the creator’s website or other social media. Clicking the section heading will also take one back to the table of contents.
