    LIGHTSPEED MAGAZINE – Science Fiction and Fantasy Story Podcast (Sci-Fi | Audiobook | Short Stories)

    Edited by bestselling anthologist John Joseph Adams, LIGHTSPEED is a Hugo Award-winning, critically-acclaimed digital magazine. In its pages, you’ll find science fiction from near-future stories and sociological SF to far-future, star-spanning SF. Plus there’s fantasy from epic sword-and-sorcery and contemporary urban tales to magical realism, science-fantasy, and folk tales. Each month, LIGHTSPEED brings you a mix of original short stories and flash fiction featuring a variety of authors, from the bestsellers and award-winners you already know to the best new voices you haven’t heard yet. When you read LIGHTSPEED, you’ll see where science fiction and fantasy have come from, where they are now, and where they’re going. The LIGHTSPEED podcast, produced by Grammy Award-winning narrator and producer Stefan Rudnicki of Skyboat Media, features original audio short stories 6-8 times a month.
