We’re very pleased to announce that Capricious Issue 1 is now available for free download. Featuring work from A.J. Fitzwater, Sean Monaghan, Sabrina Amaya Hoke and Bogi Takács, this issue takes you through fairy tales and to other worlds in none of the ways you’d expect. The authors challenge and interrogate genre boundaries, exploring themes of consent, communication, and obligation. Their work is filled with the senses of exploration, danger, and ultimate success that characterise so much of the best speculative fiction.
We really hope you enjoy reading – and if you like what you see please consider subscribing. For just US$8 we will send you copies of the next four issues direct to your inbox. Subscriptions not only help us keep publishing, but also give us a chance of making some of our (many, many) dreams for the future of Capricious a reality. If you’re unable to subscribe, don’t worry – all stories and articles from future issues will be archived and freely available on our website from three months after publication. Reviewing stories, recommending Capricious to friends, and submitting your work are other ways of supporting us which are much appreciated.
