The Colored Lens #24 Summer 2017

The goal of speculative fiction has always been to examine the real world through the lens of the imaginary. By considering what could be, we gain a better understanding of what is. The Colored Lens strives to do exactly that. By publishing short stories and serialized novellas every quarter in genres ranging from fantasy, to science fiction, to slipstream or magical realism, we hope to help our readers see the world just a bit differently than before they came to us. Featuring works by Jamie Lackey, Theron Couch, Terry Golob, Sinéad McCabe, Bethany Doyle, Benjamin Clement, Mandi Jourdan, Jasper Sanchez, David J. Gibbs, Jeff Bagato, and Mary-Jean Harris. Edited by Dawn Lloyd and Daniel Scott. Henry Fields, Associate Editor.
