“NKATA” in Interzone #304

Emma Howitt's cover artwork for Interzone #304 (March 2026), showing a snake facing off against a rabbit, as from Van Nolan’s novelette “County Colours”.
My unsettling short story “NKATA” is featured in the latest issue of long-running science-fiction magazine Interzone (issue #304, March 2026), which went out to subscribers today and will be available on the Interzone website shortly. 

The beautiful cover artwork by Emma Howitt illustrates another of the stories in this issue: Van Nolan’s novelette “County Colours”. It’s a packed issue, comprising 70,000 words of stories, articles and reviews. Bargain!

You can subscribe to Interzone via Patreon or buy issue #304 of Interzone for €5.00.

I am thrilled to make it into these august pages at long last, having first submitted a story to Interzone in 1998, and to be among such distinguished company. Thanks so much to editor Gareth Jelley.
