These Broken Little Worlds

By: Faulds, E. M.

New Collection from Award-winning Author.

E.M. Faulds is an Australian-born author living in Scotland. Her debut collection won the 2023 British Fantasy Award. This, her second collection, is at least as strong. It features the first appearance in print of "Godzilla as a Young Man Named Mike", winner of the 2026 BSFA Award for Best Short Fiction.

Nineteen stories that defy expectation. A blend of new and previously published work, narratives that dance across genre boundaries and refuse to be limited by stereotype. Stories that demonstrate why E.M. Faulds is regarded as one of the most exciting emerging voices of speculative fiction.
