Different Times and Other Places

by Juliet E. McKenna
POLESTARS 10

A series of single author collections by outstanding writers. The Polestar, or North Star, is defined as the brightest star in Ursa Minor; since every author chosen for this series is a star in their own right, Polestars provides the ideal banner under which to unite such outstanding works.

Juliet E McKenna is an exceptionally gifted writer with more than twenty novels to her credit, published by the likes of Orbit, Harper Collins, and Solaris; her short fiction has graced some half dozen NewCon anthologies, while her novella, The Golden Rule, is one of the highlights of our Steampunk Quartet. 

In 2023, Juliet's novel The Green Man's Gift (Wizard Tower Press) won the BSFA Award. We are delighted to now be publishing her first collection in nearly a decade.

With stories set in the author’s 2023 BSFA Award-winning Green Man milieu as well as the world of The Tales of Einarinn, this is a collection to savour.

Alternative histories, magical nursemaids, tree nymphs, and science fiction sit alongside traditional fantasies as the author’s imagination leads us to different times and other places.
