About this ebook

Rikka Zine is a new exhilarating Science Fiction and Fantasy anthology. This very first issue is a collection of stories about “shipping” that explores delivery work, the human relationship, and migration to other worlds.

We encourage SFF in translation, new and emerging writers from non-Anglophone countries and diaspora writers. English is not the first language of most of our contributing writers, with two thirds of them from Asia and the other third from Brazil.
