Free Short Fiction Magazine - Darwin’s Evolution
There are quite a few online ‘zines covering speculative, scifi and fantasy short fiction but this week I am reading and thoroughly enjoying Darwin’s Evolution. I’m only a few stories into the first issue but so far my attention has been held and more importantly I’ve found them entertaining.
There can be a tendency in short fiction magazines to publish stories which whilst demonstrating the craft, lose the entertainment to the ‘challenge’. Of course those stories have their place but with limited time for reading, sometimes I just want something that keeps me turning the pages and Darwin’s Evolution so far has managed that.
Good stuff then, I’ll keep reading and I will no doubt donate when I am feeling a little healthier in the pocket.
Darwin’s Evolutions is a web-based periodical that presents speculative fiction (science fiction and fantasy) genre stories in a monthly “magazine” format along with available print on demand and abridged podcast versions.
Within the boundaries of our ‘zine and our archives, expect to find engrossing stories, expressive art, and the best serial-comics we can convince to join our efforts.
This webzine is funded by the kindly donations of our readers along with select business sponsorships. We will avoid tacking on onerous web-style advertisements so long as our readership and affiliated sponsors can support us.
In every issue expect stories that give you characters to care about in challenging situations whose struggles to overcome their adversity will keep you clicking or turning the next page to find out what happens next.
