博客來Fifteen tales or adventure, intrigue and mayhem in the latest Wyldblood collection. Some are from names you may have seen before - Tiffani Angus, Michael Teasdale, David McGillveray, Kai Delmas - and some may be new to you, but all know how to write a finely crafted science fiction or fantasy tale. Of the longer stories:
- J.L. George’s Winter Wears No Crown is a fantasy story about a mediaeval village threatened by raiders and the coming of age of a pair of young heroes.
- Michael Teasdale’s The Secret is great science fiction with robots, clones and ’shadowy forces.’ Irresistible.
- R.L. Raymond’s Moon Dogis an apocalypse story with a unique perspective. In this bleak vision of the future the planet’s gone to the dogs - literally.
- Tiffani Angus’ Litterhas a post apocalyptic feel to it too - dog’s too - but the focus here is boys in search of adventure and finding instead some harsh realities.
- Chris Cornetto’s The Dead Don’t Lie is an everyday story of animated corpses and judgements from beyond the grave. With a bit of lies, deception and murder thrown in.
- Jalyn Renae Fiske’s The Quite and the Creeping has plenty to do with the dead, too - walk the labyrinth with the Quiet Souls if you dare!
- David McGillveray’s Repairs is a fast-paced futuristic car chase with races, underdogs, dubious tactics, certain failure and tortured expectation through ’narrow avenues lined with cyborg carcasses and frozen horrors’.
Plus plenty of shorter fiction from Matt Krizan, Kai Delmas, Kate Kelley, Addison Smith and Nicholas G. Marconi, and the usual mix of fiction and film news and reviews.
