We hope that this anthology will be a pleasant acquaintance with contemporary Romanian Sci-Fi and Fantasy literature. East of a Known Galaxy, a title which came up while editing "Helion Online Magazine", one of the most important literary publications of its kind in Romania, became our battle cry in the months prior to the publication of this collection. While reading dozens of stories – Romanian or Eastern European, we wondered why so few of us are known outside our country, on the "big Sci-Fi/Fantasy stage" as some may call it. Is it bad luck? Is it the language? Is it the themes and subjects we tackle? It certainly isn't quality, originality or talent. This book bears witness to this claim.
