Aurealis #170 is proud to present the compelling 'Dog of War' by Colin Clark, the cinematic 'Lacebound' by Eliza Baker and the punchy 'Trashbot' by Cameron Fischer. Our stunning illustrations for these stories come from Joel Bisaillon, Leah Clementson, and Simon Walpole. Our top non-fiction roll-out is: 'The Dishonest Melodrama of All Of Us Strangers' by Ani White, 'What Makes a Good (Movie) Sequel?' by Lachlan Walter and 'Wolves on the Page: Hunting the Great Werewolf Novel' by Emmet O'Cuana. And, of course, we have our absorbing Reviews section, worth the price of admittance on its own. Aurealis, the future is ahead.
