Aurealis open for submissions
Aurealis is back open for submissions. Crisetta MacLeod has been appointed our new Submissions Manager and she has assembled a large team of Readers who are aiming to ensure fast turnaround times for story submissions. With the change in format and schedule, Aurealis will be requiring twice as many high quality stories than we have in the past. Note that submissions to Aurealis are read blind, so all stories are read on merit, not on the author's reputation. This makes us a market open to new and inexperienced authors, as well as to established authors. Please, however, read through our guidelines very carefully before you submit. Stories that don't follow them will be rejected unread.Aurealis Books

Classic Australian SF 6: Out of the Silence
by Erle Cox (with an Introduction by Van Ikin)
It’s rare that a novel captures a country’s soul. How is it possible that a novel written almost a hundred years ago can speak to us so deeply of things that disturb and torment Australians even now? Out of the Silence is the most perplexing of novels, where during the course of the story your expectations and assumptions are turned 180 degrees. You must read this one to the very end. Once the climax hits, it will never leave you.
