Product Description

PRE-ORDER | OCTOBER 2026

Grimdark Magazine presents the darker, grittier side of fantasy and science fiction. Each quarterly issue features established and new authors to take you through their hard-bitten worlds alongside articles, reviews and interviews. Our stories are grim, our worlds are dark and our morally grey protagonists and anti-heroes light the way with bloody stories of war, betrayal and action.

Throughout 11 years of publishing, they have published fiction from Scott LynchAnna Smith Spark, Mark Lawrence, Joe Abercrombie, Andrea Stewart, R.R. Virdi, Gemma Amor, Aliette de Bodard, and Richard Swan, amongst hundreds of others.
