After 10 years, Infinity Plus, the science fiction website started by Keith Brooke (and later co-edited with Nick Gevers and then Paul Barnett) is calling it quits.

Infinity Plus was publishing free online fiction before it was in vogue. The website is also a great resource for insightful reviews and commentary. It's sad to see it go, but thankfully the current website will remain available as an archive.

And they're not going out with a whimper, but with a bang...check out this final lineup of content:

• "Cross Roads Blues" by Paul McAuley
• "Inheritance" by Paul McAuley
• An interview with Paul McAuley by Stuart Carter
• "Song of Bullfrogs, Cry of Geese" by Nicola Griffith
• "Freezing Geezers" by Kit Reed
• "The Edge of Nowhere" by James Patrick Kelly
• "Distant Galaxies Colliding" by Gareth L Powell
• "Three Days in a Border Town" by Jeff VanderMeer
• "Tall Tales on the Iron Horse" by Colin P Davies
• "What's Up Tiger Lily?" a novelette by Paul Di Filippo
• And in the end..., a last word from Keith Brooke

Also worth noting is that their 10 year run has seem the publication of 2 anthologies of the short fiction that has appeared there: Infinity Plus One and Infinity Plus Two. Orbit Solaris has just released an omnibus of those two antholgies called Infinity Plus: The Anthology.

Hats off to the folks behind Infinity Plus for a job well done!
