Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers for giving me access to the free advanced digital copy of this book.

Bridge to Elsewhere is a fun collection of space themed stories with a surprising amount of space animals. I think the lesbian peahens were my favorite (Seven Things I Learned Traveling Through Space with a Genetically Engineered Lesbian Peahen), but they were closely followed by the space travel enhancing cats (Gort, Cinder, and Sphinx). We also get to meet androids, gods that are learning to make planets, and even an improv troupe!

If you like anthologies dealing with sci-fi and space travel, I recommend this! Sometimes in anthologies you get a clunker or two, but this one I enjoyed every single one of these stories. They're fun, fast reads, and many of them involve lgbtq+ characters, which is a plus in my book.

These are new to me authors and a collection of short stories. They are at different level and but entertaining.
Recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine

Bridge to Elsewhere is a collection of various sci-fi short stories, ranging from cats lending a hand to the crews who care for them to giant tree shaped spaceships with mysterious powers.

Short stories are always a hard format to undertake. I find it can sometimes be difficult to follow along with the quick plots they have to have for so few pages. There were, however, a lot of stories I really loved in this book! I really enjoyed the writing in "How to Win Friends and Influence Rebellion," "Meteorites," "Seven Things I Learned Traveling Through Space with a Genetically Engineered Lesbian Peahen," and "Quantum Leap.'

This was an overall enjoyable collection! I think it's a nice book to pick up to read one or two stories, then put back down and return to at a later date. I could see it being enjoyable for a lot of casual sci-fi fans.

Thank you so much to NetGalley and Outland Entertainment for providing me with a copy for an honest review.
