Seanan McGuire’s anthology contributions number over 75, making her one of the most frequently anthologized authors in modern speculative fiction. Her appearances span the full range of genre fiction — from Ravens in the Library (2009) through Waterborne and The Big Bad Book of Kaiju (both 2026). The anthologies cover fantasy, horror, science fiction, superhero fiction, gaming, and media studies.
Notable collections include The Mad Scientist’s Guide to World Domination (2013), Robots vs. Fairies (2018), A People’s Future of the United States (2019), and When Things Get Dark (2021).
