100,000 words of hope.This year, many Australian communities have been affected by bushfires. People—and animals—have lost their lives and their homes. The Australian Speculative Fiction community asked the question, 'What can we do to help?''Stories of Hope' was born from the smoke and ashes, an anthology of fantasy and science fiction tales based on the theme of 'hope.' All money raised from the sales of this book will be donated to WWF's Australian Wildlife and Nature Recovery Fund and the Red Cross Disaster Relief & Recovery Fund.This is no ordinary anthology, it's a message of hope for the future.
