3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Science. Fantasy. Dragons. Super fun. By Chasia Lloyd I wasn’t too sure what solarpunk was about, but wow, this is totally a thing I want to see more of. Sci-fi + fantasy with an emphasis on environmentalism and a bright future? Yes, VERY EXCELLENT.This anthology in particular was a joy to read. “Wings of Renewal” contains 22 stories with a focus on dragons in solarpunk, and it’s filled with a wide diversity of genders and sexualities and ages and relationships. Not every story grabbed me, but they all had a sparkle to them.My favorite of the bunch is Megan Reynolds’s “Petrichor”. Witches who turn into dragons and fall in love to help bring rain to a town stricken with famine? YEAHHHH. Totally great.***advance review copy provided by the editors***

What Anthologies Should Be By Christopher Jones Short stories are just right for the modern reader: long enough to get solid development of character and plot, and short enough that you're not up until 2am trying to finish one more chapter.Solarpunk is a twist on the dark -punk genres; this one is hopeful that mankind will work out how to get back in harmony with the planet. These stories cover the genre from stem to stern, with all manner of different looks at what our future might be like. There's nothing here to disappoint, except that there are only 22 stories. You want diversity? Check. You want haunting, creepy? Check. How about just plain rollicking fun? Got that, too. The editing is tight and the writing is solid.You can't go wrong here.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. You had me at "solarpunk dragons" By Kate Diamond Featured on All Our Worlds!I’ve fallen in love with solarpunk. It combines the best of nature, technology, and human cooperation in settings where harmony is valued over profit and prejudice has long ago been defeated.Solarpunk is a vision of the future that couldn’t be more different than dreary visions of war-torn dystopias ruled over by oppressive governments. It’s a return to the hopeful visions of 60s science fiction: worlds built by environmentalists and social justice activists, engineers and innovators. Societies that run on solar and wind power, where people work together instead of fighting, where anyone of any gender, race, and ability can achieve their dreams.Add dragons and witches and spaceships to that, and I’ll never look back.Not only are these stories full of imaginative worldbuilding and hope for the future, they’re also highly diverse.This collection proudly features disability, racial diversity, and queerness, and various intersections of these. Wings of Renewal hits the ground running: the first story is about a girl who uses and designs prosthetic limbs building a leg for a dragon injured by poachers.And that’s just the beginning. Following stories include all sorts of characters and settings: airships, spaceships, colony planets, farming communities; witches, shapeshifters, engineers, princesses.Three stories feature queer woman protagonists, and there are dozens of characters of color. Nobody is questioned for their skin color or gender. Instead of having to struggle against an ignorant society, they rescue dragons, save communities, and travel through space.That’s what I most love about the diversity in this collection- it’s unchallenged. The problems characters face are all related to their adventure, not to having their identities accepted. Which is as the future should be!On the critical side, I am little disappointed that none of the protagonists were nonbinary and/or transgender, though several minor NB characters did show up. The intended audience also seemed inconsistent. Some stories felt more YA or middle grade, while others felt like standard adult reading. But even with those nitpicks, the collection was amazing.Solarpunk is the perfect stage for diverse SFF. It’s a future where we’ve overcome oppression and averted ecological crisis, where working together can achieve far more than anyone working alone.
