APEX MAGAZINE
Strange. Shocking. Surreal. Beautiful.
Are you excited to read short stories from not only some of the biggest names in genre fiction but also the most exciting new writers bursting onto the scene?
Do you want to read the kind of stories that Apex Magazine readers describe as “dark, curious, heart-breaking” “a fascinating examination of humanity” “emotionally wrenching and comforting at the same time” and “I haven't been able to stop plumbing the depths of this narrative, even long after the story ends”?
Or perhaps you love to dig into the art and science of storytelling through in-depth author interviews and non-fiction articles…
You have come to the right place.
