Description

An anthology of tales from the Glasgow SF Writers' Circle celebrating the World Science Fiction Convention in Glasgow in 2024. These stories span the genre spectrum from fantasy to science fiction, horror to experimental weirdness. Eclectic is most definitely the word. In Gallus you will find Celtic mythology, literary heists, cursed songs, the world's worst language app, wizards gone bad, the loneliness of space travel, and a convocation of witches gathering to save us all from ecological catastrophe.

Many of these tales are set in Scotland, but not all. Most are written in standard British English, but a few are written in modern Scots, which is the language that gives us our title. Gallus means bold, daring, or high-spirited. It’s very Glasgow. It’s very GSFWC.
