Ad Astra (The 50th Anniversary SFWA Cookbook) edited by Fran Wilde and Cat Rambo, is now up for preorder at the SFWA website. All proceeds from this project will go to SFWA’s Legal Fund, which helps members with writing-related court costs and other related legal expenses. The contributor line up is phenomenal, including recipes by John Scalzi, Carrie Vaugh, Connie Willis, and so many, many more. This would be a great gift for the SFF loving chef in your life (and of course, you’ll want to keep a copy for yourself, too.)

Here’s the synopsis:

This is more than just a cookbook. It’s a historical document, tracing the history of SF/F entertaining back more than fifty years.
