They have garnered numerous accolades and have sold millions of books around the world. Many of their names are likely to be new to you; Mothership is your invitation to get acquainted with them and their writing.”

Campbell writes “This speculative fiction anthology includes the works of such award-winning and best-selling authors as Junot Diaz, Victor LaValle, Lauren Beukes, Tobias Buckell, N.K. Jemisin, S.P. Somtow, Eden Robinson, Vandana Singh, Rabih Alameddine, and Linda D. Addison; the genre-starting work of Charles R. Saunders; the genre-defying writings of Darius James and Greg Tate; as well as exciting, new writers like Carmen Maria Machado, Chinelo Onwualu, Jaymee Goh, and Tade Thompson. Literary awards from the Pulitzer Prize to the Bram Stoker are represented in this collection as well as every land from both hemispheres. Truly diverse and truly spectacular, Mothership has most definitely taken off.”
