March/April Issue

Two blockbuster novellas bookend our March/April 2026 issue! For Kevin J. Anderson & Rick Wilber’s colonists, living on an alien planet hasn’t been easier than the generation voyage there, and life is about to get weirder when they meet “The Ghosts of Goldilocks”! And weird doesn’t begin to describe Paul di Filippo & Preston Grassman’s “Quest for the Corpus Mundi”! You won’t want to miss these suspenseful tales.

Also in March/April

Michael Libling’s delightfully odd novelette reveals the truth about some UFOs and the value of “The Placemat at Baldy’s Diner”; two young people dedicate their lives to space travel in James Van Pelt’s “A Fierce Need”; a young woman takes on murderers and tyranny in R. Garcia y Robertson’s “Satan’s Slave”; and broadcasts bring hope in Gu Shi’s first story for Asimov’s. “Antarctic Radio” was translated from Chinese by Andy Dudak. Octavia Cade brutally terrorizes us with a prescription for “How to Live with Polar Bears”; a woman determined to see what could have been receives some lessons in David Ebenbach’s “How Else”; and Stephen Case’s investigator encounters an eerie religious mystery in “The High Shrines.”

Our Exciting Features
