Vampires. Werewolves. Time travelers. Airships. Mediums. The Phantom of the Opera—or Erik, as he prefers to be called. Some Time Later: Fantastic Voyages Through Alternative Worlds overflows with wonder and is fueled by boundless imagination. In this sci-fi, fantasy anthology authors such as Kirsten Weiss, T.E. MacArthur, Harry Turtledove, and more transport readers to all corners of the globe and spaces in time. But these stories are not only bound together by their genre. Each story is fast-paced and full of sharp—cheeky—dialogue, which gives them–and in turn the anthology—a cinematic quality that allows readers to slip into each world with ease. Some Time Later is divided into two parts. In the first part, each author sets the stage for their narrative, and then in the second half they pick up the narrative “some time later.” This unique structure offers readers a chance to stay with their favorite characters and worlds a little bit longer. But while the narratives may span across two stories, many of them still seem to end too soon.
