About

Devilfish Review is a literary magazine founded by Cathy Lopez and Sarah McDonald in 2011. We publish fiction and poetry, with an emphasis on science fiction, fantasy, horror, and anything that might be referred to as speculative. We love magic realism, and fairy tales, and things that are a bit odd. With regards to characters, we believe that representation matters, and we would like to provide a space for those voices that are so often marginalized.
