Welcome to YEAR 5 of Space Wizard!


--> NEW! Watch the author interview with Athena Giles! <--


Our year 5 campaign is better than ever! In part 2, we'll be releasing (at least) 7 queer science fiction and fantasy books from January to June 2027!

If you've backed our Year 1-4 campaigns or read Space Wizard books, you know the quality of work we publish. Get any or all of the new stories as they release. We have some great new books coming to you!

If you haven't heard of us before...

Space Wizard Science Fantasy is a queer science fiction and fantasy indie publishing company started in 2016 to publish William C. Tracy's books. But in 2021, the publishing company opened its doors to more authors. Our intent has always been to showcase quality science fiction and fantasy stories with queer characters, because they don't get enough exposure in the publishing world.

- In 2022, the Space Wizard Science Fantasy Year 1 campaign raised nearly $18,000 for 12 books.

- In 2023, Year 2 raised over $18,000 for 12 more books with great covers, illustrations, and hardbacks!

- In 2024, Year 3 raised over $17,000 for 14 books and two new TTRPG systems!

- Also in 2024, we released Lesbians in Space: Where No Man Has Gone Before, with almost $11,000 for an anthology of 21 stories, including 4 by Hugo award nominated and winning authors!

- In 2025, we ran Space Wizard Year 4 Part 1 in June, raising over $10,000. In September, we ran the sequel to Lesbians in Space, The Sapphics Strike Back, raising almost $12,000, and Year 4 Part 2 in November, raising almost $8,000!


We have another fantastic roster coming in year 5 PART 2, October 2026:
  • Dead in the Water - book 2 of Athena Giles' Children of Sea and Sky fantasy series, starting with Waves Take Your Bones!
  • Bond of Wildflowers by Connor Kim. Enter a cozy YA fantasy where all is not as it seems between the fae world and ours!
  • Battle Tested - book 2 of E.J. Isaacs' The Unforgiving Stars series. If you like Star Trek and Babylon 5, you'll love this series! Book 3, Resistance will be coming in June 2027!
  • Tide Tale - book 3 of Kristina W. Kelly's Tales of Trelvania. Continue the wildly popular cozy fantasy series, including Tavern Tale and Tea Tale!
  •  Anything But Ordinary - book 2 in Heather Tracy's These Dreams, with a new standalone story (but with some of the same characters) as her first book, Only a Chapter!
  • Purgatory Rift - book 3 of the Call of the Void series, by A.Z. Rozkillis, starting with Space Station X and Fractal Terminus. A group of survivors is stuck in a seemingly endless loop of horrors just on the other side of the rift, and must plot a way to escape. Return to more lesbian comedy horror!
  • The Venus Vendetta, by Robin C.M. Duncan. Come back to the Quirk & Moth near sci-fi detective series, including The Mandroid Murders, The Carborundum Conundrum, and The Rigel Redemption, with Book 4!


Space Wizard now has over 70 books available, and more coming every month.

Here are our most recently released books from June 2026:

And this is the rest of our catalog!

Author Interview with Athena Giles!
Hello folks! Here is our first video for our Space Wizard Year 5, Part 2 Launch Party! We've got plenty more videos coming through September and October for the October 29 start of the The Book Bazaar 2026, with nearly 40 publishing projects! We'll have about one interview a week until the start of the campaign.

I talked with Athena Giles about their second book, Dead in the Water. This follows 2025's Waves Take Your Bones, about two refugees from zombie attacks in a high seas renaissance fantasy adventure! There's even more naval battles, zombies, and pirates in book 2!
