The Trans Space Octopus Congregation

<p>This collection from the Lambda Literary Award-winning author and editor of <em>Transcendent 2</em> offers plenty of thrills - and bonus tentacles - for readers of LGBTQ-focused speculative literature. The stories range from magical space opera to cheerful body horror and historical fantasy always with a sense of hope amid adversity. The mystical and magical merge with the scientific and technological: sacred texts gain new interpretations in the light of nuclear physics and people save a forest with computer science. Cephalopods build alliances and research their past Jewish shapeshifters speak to extraterrestrial planetminds and Hungarian horse archers summon ancient terrors.</p>
