A quick heads up for sci-fi fans. Writes Wired UK:

Speculative fiction author Jake Kerr has edited and released Event Horizon 2017, a huge anthology of short fiction by 75 authors eligible for this year’s John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer. Kerr, who assembled the book over a weekend, said: “I knew it wouldn’t look like a ‘bookstore’ book, but I also knew it would look nice and something a young author would be proud to have: their first paperback book with their name in it.” Event Horizon 2017 is available as a free ebook, or as two physical volumes at the cost price of $10.33 apiece.

Find the free ebook here. Get more details on the collection at The Verge.
