More short stories I enjoyed from Renay's spreadsheet.

Baba Yaga and the Seven Hills, Kristina Ten, Lightspeed. Baba Yaga in San Francisco. Cute.

Beloved and Deserted, Nicole Tan, Translunar Travelers Lounge. Your archetypal Sword and Sorcerer, more or less.

Anchorage, Samantha Mills, Uncanny. A space anchorite and a space crew with tensions.

The Greatest Good, Jed Sabin, Daily Science Fiction. The always-vexing question of one's super suit. :)

The Honey of the World and the Queen of Crows, Dimitra Nikolaidou, Beneath Ceaseless Skies. A soldier, a nun, more soldiers.

Key Component, T.R. Siebert, Escape Pod. Being raised to become a cyborg pilot, and the choice to go through with it.

The Swallows of the Storm, Ray Nayler, Lightspeed. This combines two of my particular interests, the climate collapse and original alien contact scenarios.

Words We Say Instead, Brit E.B. Hvide, Uncanny. More ships who are people.

Judge Dee and the Limits of the Law, Lavie Tidhar, Tor.com. A fun vampire story.
