Substacks recommended by Johnathan Reid

Recommended by Johnathan Reid

Science fiction novels for thinkers, serialised for your pleasure. Chapters published twice weekly. Dystopian / Post-Apocalyptic / Cli-Fi / First Contact / Space Adventure.

My debut Substack serial, INGRESSION, is an adult speculative fiction novel. It fuses dystopian, first contact and climate fiction themes, with a hint of swords and eagles fantasy. If you're into a near-future setting, character-driven plot and a strong, contemporary woman protagonist, then this might be for you.

By Joshua Lavender

Cybermonk sci-fi about Quibble, a heretic in a transhuman theocracy. Essays about the Singularity and writing fiction.

Weaves speculative fiction using a variety of prose and poetic forms to combine old mysteries with new revelations and both science fact & fiction with fantasy. Talented world-building and deft word-wielding at its finest.
