Andromeda Spaceways Inflight Magazine #37

By John Ottinger III ⋅ October 14, 2008

According to editor Tehani Wessely, Andromeda Spaceways Inflight Magazine issue #37 is a compilation of tales that “deal with loss and change, in a wide variety of incarnations.” Why?

Andromeda Spaceways Inflight Magazine #36

By Jim Steel ⋅ September 15, 2008

Cat Sparks is probably the most recognisable name in issue #36 of Andromeda Spaceways Inflight Magazine, aside from a Greg Egan interview, and she kicks the magazine off with a serious and introverted tale that belies Andromeda’s lighthearted reputation. “Piper” is a childhood friend of Megan and Megan’s husband, Doug, and has never met [...]

The first issue hit the stands in June of 2002, and readers and reviewers have taken notice ever since. The publishing co-op maintains a roughly bimonthly release schedule, with each issue containing about [...]
