THE 200 SCI-FI WORLDS BUNDLE

The 200 Sci-Fi Worlds Bundle - Curated by J. Scott Coatsworth

Other Worlds Ink is excited to be curating its first StoryBundle – Explore 200 Sci-Fi Worlds. We've included fifteen sci-fi anthologies and collections showcasing 139 authors and more than 200 individual stories, but it's available for a limited time only – from May 4th to May 26th. This StoryBundle offers a large selection of ebooks from independent and small press fantasy writers. You can grab it now here: https://storybundle.com/anthology.

This StoryBundle features a wide variety of themes – fighting climate change, exploring the far reaches of the galaxy, future crime, hopepunk, sci-fi zombies, space marines, exosapiens, LGBTQ+ heroes, and so much more. With 139 authors, chances are that you'll find some new writers to love.

Readers who purchase Explore 200 Sci-Fi Worlds will gain a rich collection of sci-fi short story fiction, and can opt to donate part of their purchase price to support SFWA's new Heritage Author Republication Program (HARP), aimed to help elder and disabled authors get their books back into print.

Readers may choose what price they want to pay for the initial four books, starting at $5. Spending $20 unlocks eleven more books that they can receive with their purchase.

Once May 26th passes, this particular collection will be gone forever, so grab it now! – J. Scott Coatsworth
