Today's readers of science fiction and fantasy have an appetite for stories that address a wide variety of voices, perspectives, and styles.

With a diverse selection of stories chosen" by series editor John Joseph Adams and Diana Gabaldon, The Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy 2020 explores the ever-expanding and changing world of SFF today.
