Featuring the masterful prose of some of today's most accomplished writers, Forged in FIYAH is a celebration of Black speculative fiction unlike anything seen before!
Forged in FIYAH showcases the extraordinary talent and innovation of contemporary Black science fiction and fantasy. Coinciding with the tenth anniversary of FIYAH Magazine of Black Speculative Fiction, this collection of eighteen stories features tales from mainstays of genre fiction alongside the dynamic, groundbreaking work of several of FIYAH's most promising newcomers.
From pop‑up funeral homes between worlds to magical healing silks; from second chance afterlives to creepy, sinister dolls; and from kindhearted killing machines to a vampire with a conscience, these stories of science fiction, fantasy, and horror are unlike anything you have read before.
Hopeful, defiant, glorious, and joyful, Forged in FIYAH is a landmark celebration of everything Black speculative fiction has to offer!
