CLOSED FOR SUBMISSIONS - Scimitar Edge is now closed for submissions for 2023.

Books in production will be published as agreed, and the business remains in existence, but we are not taking on new work until next year. All titles remain in print, and the publishing schedule remains as agreed.

Infinity Wanderers is a new magazine dedicated to promoting alternate history and the associated genres of Science Fiction, Steampunk, Historical Fiction and Fantasy. In addition we aim for between 1/3 and 1/2 real history and writers of Historical features are welcome to submit.

Whilst considered part of the Scimitar Edge stable, Infinity Wanderers goes out under the self-publishing 'Selornia' marque as a magazine, and not a book.

Please send submissions to editor@scimitaredge.com.
Issue 8 of Infinity Wanderers will be published in December 2023.
