Mythic Orbits is subtitled “best speculative fiction by Christian authors,” and it’s intended to be an annual anthology.

The 2016 edition is packed with well-written stories in a variety of speculative flavours, including fantasy, dystopian, paranormal, horror, and science fiction. Some are disturbing, some funny, some sweet. And some have happy endings.

You’ll meet fairies, monsters, robots, ghosts, and more… and humans from young to old.
Some stories have an overt Christian thread, others a more allegorical faith element, and others none at all. They’re all clean reads, although I did notice some of what I’d call minor swear words in a few places.

Definitely some powerful imaginations were at work for this project, and they’ve delivered an impressive collection of tales.

[Disclosure: I have a personal connection with one of the 14 authors, but I can review the other 13 stories and the overall collection without bias.]
