Description
Sunvault: Stories of Solarpunk and Eco-Speculation is the first anthology to broadly collect solarpunk short fiction, artwork, and poetry. A new genre for the 21st Century, solarpunk is a revolution against despair. Focusing on solutions to environmental disasters, solarpunk envisions a future of green, sustainable energy used by societies that value inclusiveness, cooperation, and personal freedom.
Edited by Phoebe Wagner and Brontë Christopher Wieland, Sunvault focuses on the stories of those inhabiting the crucial moments when great change can be made by people with the right tools; stories of people living during tipping points, and the spaces before and after them; and stories of those who fight to effect change and seek solutions to ecological disruption.

Featured Reviews
(Copied from my Goodreads review)
This was a really interesting collection- I wasn't previously familiar with solarpunk, but it wasn't quite what I expected. This was much more optimistic, almost as if people were living in a dystopic world, but making the best of it and trying to make the world a better place. This was very encouraging.
Like most collections, there were entries I liked more than others. I thought it was neat that the editors included things like poetry and art in addition to short stories, although I'm not sure I'm smart enough to really "get" poetry, and I think some of it is meant to be listened to and read aloud, but many of the individual lines were quite beautiful and inspiring. My favorite stories were: "Teratology" by C. Samuel Rees, "Last Chance" by Tyler Young, "The Desert, Blooming" by Lev Mirov, and "Pop and the CFT" by Brandon Crilly. I'm really glad I read them all though, and thought many of the ideas were interesting!
