How far can we stretch the sci-fi fantasy elements of "jellyfish in space"?? This week, the SFF Bestiary reads Aliette de Bodard's Hugo-nominated novella Navigational Entanglements!

Jellyfish are profoundly alien to our human biology and psychology — so they make sense as space aliens

About 75-ish% done and I’ve loved every word.

Each L&L book is better than the previous one. Sorcery! It has to be sorcery. It’s the only explanation.

ICYMI! Reading 2025 fiction?

Try the short story "The Breaker of Mountains and Rivers" by Aliette de Bodard @aliettedebodard.com!

You can read it here!

The cover for Uncanny Magazine Issue 64, “Barbershops of the Floating City" by Grace P. Fong: A woman stands facing the viewer, her qipao is a light blue color with flower designs in a darker shade of blue. Her long, black hair trails elegantly behind her while she holds a pair of scissors close to her chest. Behind there is a shadow that looks in the opposite direction, as if she is looking down at the city depicted below. At the top is a sun that crowns the two figures and bathes the entire picture in light. The quote reads: "And she can’t breathe and she can’t talk, and she’s clinging onto the locations of the Five she hid as the war between the celestials and the demons engulfed province after province—hid them because the wholesale destruction they brought when wielded scared her to her bones."

The cover for Uncanny Magazine Issue 62, “Mermay - Golden Hour" by Maxine Vee: In a forest of brown, orange, and golden leaves, a mermaid with orange/gold hair sits on a rock in a small light blue pond. She stares at her open palms, illuminated by a beam of sunlight. Purple flowers in shade lie scattered on the ground in the foreground. The quote reads: "The form is one page long. No back. Just a front. It should be longer. There are six copies of the form, all different colors. Like I’m working my way through the rainbow to the end where I’ll finally find peace. Red. A parent or guardian. I meet my mother for lunch at the little bistro down the street."
