Year's Best Young Adult Speculative Fiction 2014

Discover the best young adult short fiction of the year originally published in the anthologies dedicated to the form, the occasional special edition of a magazine, and individual pieces appearing in otherwise adult anthologies and magazines, and brought together here in one accessible collection. Julia Rios and Alisa Krasnostein, the award winning editors of Kaleidoscope: Diverse YA Science Fiction and Fantasy Stories, have collected twenty-one of the best young adult speculative fiction short stories of 2014. Praise for Kaleidoscope: This anthology is perfect for teens who are interested in science fiction and fantasy-but who don't want just stories about white, straight, able-bodied rich kids and their vampire problems. - NPR Kaleidoscope offers a wild ride to places both enticingly new and comfortingly familiar, and it's a great addition to the worlds of both YA and SFF. - Big Blue Marble Books This anthology is truly kaleidoscopic and absolutely recommended. - Kirkus
