Rainbows aren't just for Leprechauns
(2025)A speculative anthology, Reimaging colors
An anthology of stories edited by Eric Klein
Colors shape our world—but what if they shaped worlds beyond imagination?
Why does Red Riding Hood's cloak need to be crimson? How could emperors command respect without their royal purple?
And what would Terry Pratchett's Discworld be without the mysterious glow of octarine?
Journey through a kaleidoscope of speculative fiction where colors aren't just visual experiences—they're gateways to extraordinary universes. In these provocative tales, hues become characters, absences of color create tension, and rainbows transcend their weather-bound origins to reveal deeper truths about human existence.
From the blinding white of alien landscapes to the deepest black of cosmic voids, this anthology pushes boundaries and challenges perceptions. Each story—crafted for mature readers—invites you to see familiar colors through unfamiliar eyes.
Explore the spectrum of human emotion, technological possibility, and magical potential in this collection that dares to ask:
What if colors could change everything?
Warning: Contains adult themes and content that may challenge conventional perspectives. For readers who prefer their speculative fiction bold, thought-provoking, and unapologetically vibrant.
