Do you thirst for adventure? Do you hunger for danger? Do you relish the thought of flashing blades, ferocious beasts, and fearsome women with swords? Then come on down to Amber and Stone, the fantasy story guaranteed to fill you up with pulpy goodness, one week at a time. This week’s special is light narrative interlude with a hint of sweetness and a wafer-thin crust of machismo.
If you’re still hungry after the entree, might I recommend a selection from our dessert tray:
- Wil Hindmarch’s Wired Tales – Yes, I mentioned it last week, but it’s worth brining up again. Each month, Wil writes and publishes short stories inspired by the previous month’s issue of WIRED magazine. The first issue is out (it’s free), and it’s a guaranteed good read, and pleasing to the eye to boot.
- Jack Mangan’s Memories of an Undead Sun – The latest “chain story” hosted by Michael Stackpole features a flying saucer and more questions than answers.
- Mike Oliveri’s Inazuma – Horror writer Mike Oliveri shares a killer short story in PDF or ePub.
