“The Mune” is our newest Gold SF title.
30 Victorian women - “surplus” mothers - are shipwrecked on an island in a parallel universe. To survive, they must create a new society. How will they shake off the patriarchal chains that bound them & raise their children to be free?

Featured in #Meanjin
"Empathy" & "The Other Shore" by #HoaPham
"Both books thoughtfully contribute to a growing body of literature that rejects the Western canon & refuses to present minoritised characters for the dominant gaze."

“When poet Jessy Randall started researching the lives of female scientists, she became angry. The team at Lost Women of Science can certainly relate. Female scientists rarely got the recognition they deserved.”

A wickedly funny, feminist take on the lives and work of women who resisted their parents, their governments, the rules and conventions of their times, and sometimes situations as insidious as a lack of a women's bathroom in a college science building.

Hilarious, heart-breaking, and perfectly pitched, these carefully researched poems about historical women in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medicine will bring you to both laughter and outrage in just a few lines.

The one that started it all… our very first book, published back in 2022 and still going strong: “Mathematics for Ladies: Poems on Women in Science”.

Who will survive when the world is destroyed? Can stories from the distant past teach us how to change a dismal present? “Merchant” shifts perspective between three survivors of a flooded world as they try to navigate the threat of mass starvation.
Coming in May…

'"The Disinformation War" is a novel of ideas... a Wyndham-style quiet dystopia where a small group, in a world that’s changed, have to find a way through it. Really interesting & terrifyingly plausible –food for thought. I am intrigued what Groenewegen has in store for us next.'

"Little Sisters and Other Stories" is publishing in late April 2024.

Text from The Fantasy Hive's announcement of our forthcoming title: "Little Sisters and Other Stories" but Vonda N McIntyre. "Gold SF, who up until now have concentrated on bringing exciting current works of feminist speculative feminist fiction into print, will be dipping their toes into the world of reissues with a thoroughly necessary project - a collection of Vonda N. McIntyre's short stories. McIntyre remains a hugely influential and important writer, even as much of her work has drifted out of print in recent years, so this chance for a new generation to discover her iconic short fiction is not to be missed. "Little Sisters and Other Stories" will be released on the 21st of May."
