Our best Science Fiction and Fantasy stories of 2021 - a podcast by RNZ

The strange made familiar and the familiar made strange find a home in the stories gathered together in Year's Best: Aotearoa New Zealand Science Fiction & Fantasy Volume 3. Marie Hodgkinson has selected 22 stories for this third celebration of short stories in both genres. But are science fiction readers in the mood for stories that relate in any way to the coronovirus nightmare the world's currently going through? Lynn talks with Marie Hodgkinson and with one of the writers in the collection, Terri Te Tau. Her story has nothing to do with pandemics but instead has a connection to the extinction of our native species. Year's Best: Aotearoa New Zealand Science Fiction & Fantasy Volume 3 is published by Paper Road Press.
