The Growers
(2025)Best of New Myths Anthology Volume V
An anthology of stories edited by Scott T Barnes, Candyce Byrne and Susan Shell Winston
Whether it’s a dystopia after the end of civilization, a distant world with fantastic beings, or a far future with advanced technology, it will need farmers. Thirty-six of the world’s best fantasy and science fiction authors celebrate in prose and poetry the few who feed the globe:
A grieving widow from another world with a struggling desert farm who rescues a strange creature…and must find a way to provide for them both.
A combat robot at the end of its career who escapes to the countryside and must make peace with a sheepdog to find a new home.
Bickering families at the edge of space who must work together or be destroyed by a terrifying monster.
Join our authors in honoring the fantastic, the uncanny, and the conceivable farmers.
Genre: Science Fiction
