Shoreline of Infinity 11½ Edinburgh International Science Festival Edition

Shoreline of Infinity Science Fiction Magazine is published in Edinburgh, Scotland for the world. It features short fiction, articles, poetry, art, reviews and more. The first issue was published in the summer of 2015; already we have published some astonishingly good stories from new and more well known writers, from Scotland and from around the world.

We also run a monthly mini science fiction festival, Event Horizon.

This is a special edition produced in partnership with the Edinburgh International Science Festival, on the theme of sustainability and science fiction. Or, "Can Science Fiction Save Us?"
