I am very pleased to be able to announce that my latest sword and sorcery story, an 8000 word yarn called In the Temple of the Snake, is in the latest issue of Crimson Quill Quarterly, along with some stellar contribributors.
Crimson Quill Quarterly is available as a papertback and kindle eBook.
A City of Phantoms (Part 2 of 2): Teel James Glenn - When their
caravan is attacked, Dunal and Ada are captured and taken to the
legendary city of Atlaztan, a frightening madhouse of magick and murder,
and it is up to the two companions to not only survive - but escape
against all odds!
Backed Up in Iber: Carl Ellis - Ceeon, wayward,
once-retired thief, drowning in medical debt, takes on one final job in
the hopes of rebuilding his life and reconnecting with his daughter.
All he has to do is steal some items from one of the most heavily
guarded vaults in all of Iber!
King of Killers: Mario Curic - The
barbarian king Keroveh rules the former No Man's Land with the aid of
an army of sellswords and an ancient relic of mysterious power. When
another mercenary carries a similar gift arrives to offer his services,
the ruthless warlord sees an opportunity to spread his reach, all the
while plagued by a worm of doubt.
Trollslayer: Susan Murrie
Macdonald - After being sent on what Vilne believed would be a boring
errand, it was not long before he began to detect the presence of nearby
trolls. After destroying their dwelling, he is set upon by a pair of
the foul monstrosities. These monsters, however, may not be as mindless
or heartless as legend has let on.
In the Temple of the Snake:
David A. Riley - To the snake charmer, the proferred journey to the
Temple of the Snake by the secretive sorcerer Roannda Caltrani was
barely a challenge to his abilities, and in the end it would make him
wealthy beyond his wildest dreams. Little did he suspect that the horrors
he would find inside the forbidden temple would be incredibly far worse
than anything he could have imagined and would change his life forever.
Trail
of Steel: Damir Salkovic - Having narrowly escaped a hanging, three
unlikely companions rob a wealthy merchant, set free a chain of slaves,
and become embroiled in a tribal feud as they flee civilization. Over
the mountains, the unruly coast beckons, a frontier of sinister magic
and hungry swords where they hope to escape their past misdeeds. But
redemption has a price, and the dangers are many on the trail of steel.
The
Drakvur Challenge: Rab Foster - In a temple dedicated to a mysterious
deity known as Drakvur, at dawn on the longest day of the year, six
prisoners are forced to take part in a ritual. They must race across a
lake using stepping stones that weave between sinister statues and rise
above shoals of hungry fish. Unfortunately, they have a seventh
competitor to deal with: Drakvur itself...
