In STARGAZING, “The journey might just be the reward.” In THE PRETTIEST GIRL IN THE ROOM, “Duster Mann adores women–especially when they have XY chromosomes like the woman he fell for at first sight and has been searching for ever since. ” In TIME NOW, “Mattie will do anything to change the past…but what if the past won’t let her?” In THE MAN IN THE MIRROR, “In a world of declining male birthrates, Gina moves to a Ranch searching for love. When Gina’s marriage fails, her best friend Andi takes drastic steps to make sure Gina’s dreams of love still come true.”
In THE TOTI, “Where can the gay man who has everything find fulfillment? There’s only one possible place: in the arms of a toti....” In THE VISITOR, “Can love follow a person through time? When Madoc meets a man from the future he little realizes it will be the catalyst to change his world.” In ZOOGARISH, “Cole’s panic attacks aren’t about to keep him from a Zoogarish. He fights his fears only to find the hallucinations generated by this Zoogarish are something different, something truly deadly.”
In THE FUTURE OF DR LOLE SAN PAULO, “High above the morals and laws of the civilized world, a disgraced geneticist finds a new lease on life when an unusual thief comes to him with an indecent proposal.” In THE SISTER BUSH, “ A young woman from the distant future, plagued by strange dreams, learns that love and profit can be at odds with one another.” In PLUMBING THE DEPTHS, “Washed-up Space Exploration Rangers, Cliff Cody and his husband Jake, are sent on a mission to the earth’s core, only to have the nature of their world and relationship shaken.” In OFF COURSE, “Disaster leads to a close encounter of the best kind.”
In EURYDICE, “Visit the planet Eurydice: a world filled with fanatics, lunatics and isolationists where they’d rather kill you than say hello. The perfect holiday stop, only if you’re still young enough to feel immortal…” In WHATEVER THE RISK, “Paroche is one planet Teless never wants to go to. When his partner and Captain announces that they are going to be trading there on their next jump, Teless knows it can only end badly.” And in HERE BE GARDENS, “Jaime’s been living off world when the death of an ex-lover draws him back to Earth–or does he have a different motive for leaving the herbaceous Dyson Sphere he’s called home for two years?”
THE FUTURE IS QUEER...
REVIEWS
“I did [] really enjoy the variety in the stories, both in LGBT terms and sci-fi terms. We've got gay, lesbian, and even the rarely-written transexual; alien encounters, futuristic starship captains, and alternate universes. Like its predecessor, Queer Dimensions stretches out and covers the gamut, and the variety makes the collection stronger.” (3 pints of blood)

“After the excellent Queer Wolves collection, I was really looking forward to this science fiction anthology, and Rasmussen and his authors did not disappoint! [...] The collection as a whole ranges from the strong to the brilliant, and comes highly recommended.” (5 stars)
