We have just published our first ever Aurealis Award Winners issue. It features two of the winning stories from this year's Aurealis Awards.  'Rains of la Strange' by Robert N Stephenson, an action-packed story set in a richly-realised milieu, won Best Science Fiction Short Story. The story was published in a brilliant anthology Anywhere but Earth (Couer de Lion), edited by former Aurealis editor, Keith Stevenson. The second story in this issue is 'The Short Go: a Future in Eight Seconds' by Lisa L Hannett which was a joint winner in the Horror Short Story Category. It appeared in her collection, Bluegrass Symphony (Ticonderoga Publications), which has been short-listed for the 2012 World Fantasy Awards.  To download your copy of Aurealis #55 Award Winners go to the Smashwords site or use this link http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/241771.
