Under the Amoral Bridge

by Gary A. Billard

Artemis Bridge is the know-who, go-to guy, the amoral fixer in 2028 Los Angeles with the connection for any illicit desire no matter how depraved. You need it, he can get it without questions or judgment. He prides himself on staying detached from the depravity, untouched by the filth, untouchable by the law.

When a young hacker is assassinated before his eyes, he is burdened with a scandalous video of the mayor on the eve of the city’s most important election of the century. With digital assassins and murderous thugs dogging his every step, he has only days before the corrupt mayor is re-elected, handing the Chronosoft Corporation complete control of the city. Unable to sell the video, he is forced further into a complex conspiracy. This taut futuristic thriller is the debut novel by Gary A. Ballard, a rising new talent in the cyberpunk genre.

Swains Lock

by Ted Stabler

In 1995, Vin Illick is at loose ends after relocating to suburban Maryland with his fiancee Nicky Hayes. Scavenging planks from an abandoned shed near the defunct Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, he finds a cryptic note, dated March 29, 1924, that begins and ends as follows:

Charlie,

If it is April and I am missing, I fear I have been killed because of what happened today at Swains Lock. I may be buried along with the others at the base of three joined sycamores…

…one tree leads to the money, the second leads to the killers and the third leads to the dead. In your search for me you may find the truth. Be careful you don’t share my fate.

Yours respectfully, Lee Fisher

The note is accompanied by a photograph of a young couple posed above a sprawling waterfall. Penciled on the back of the photo are the words ‘L. Fisher and K. Elgin at Great Falls.’

Nicky wants him to search for a job, but Vin becomes determined to find ‘Lee Fisher’s truth.’ Was Lee killed and buried along with the others? What about the money? And what happened at Swains Lock?

Pursuing threads in the note, Vin encounters fresh clues that seem intended for him. His investigation turns life-threatening in the woods and he suspects that a recent acquaintance – a young widow associated with two accidental deaths – is stalking his search. Why? Vin closes in on Lee’s joined sycamores only to learn that the past won’t stay buried, and that a confrontation with destiny and vengeance awaits him at Swains Lock.

The Wordsmiths And The Warguild

by Hugh Cook

Togura Poulaan is a questing hero who is on a quest to find the index, the magical device which can control the odex, the mysterious object which has swallowed his beloved Day Suet.

To rescue his beloved, Togura must quest, and quest successfully. But his journey is beset by complications: being taken prisoner by enemies with hideous habits, running into pirates, being fed to giant sea serpents, encountering sea dragons, getting involved with the wizard of Drum, being captured by a wild tribe and, finally, getting embroiled in a major war.

This fantasy novel is written at an adult level and, at times, deals with mature themes. Violence, brutality, earthy incidents and salty language may, at times, offend those of delicate sensibilities.

Sleuths of Sorcery

by Anne Hutchins and Bart A. Marchand

‘Another sleet-soaked muck through the countryside,’ Guardsmen Ifan Beland muttered to his flanksman, Guardsman Uist Carlh. ‘Gods, it’s falling down thick as pudding, yet! So much for being part of Lord Vaukmond’s Elite Guard.’

‘Keep your voice down,’ Uist muttered back, holding his helmed head averted so that the Captain, riding just ahead of them, wouldn’t think the words had come from him. ‘Besides, it’s our horses doing all the ‘mucking.” Uist wanted to tell Ifan that he was as tired of hearing the guardsman’s bitter complaining as he was of ‘mucking through the countryside.’ But he had to admit, he didn’t much enjoy this mission either.

He and Ifan had just been promoted to the Duke’s Elite Guard only a week before and had barely time to savor their advance in rank before their attachment was ordered into the first of many long patrols. The Captain hadn’t elaborated much, only that Windemere had received reports of a beast which had managed, by itself, to raze a whole village. No further details were given, save to look for anything ‘unusual.’

After three mornings and afternoons of patrolling, or ‘mucking’ as Ifan termed it, they hadn’t found a single ‘unusual’ thing.

Mirrorfall

by Stormy Laysursharq

The world is exactly as you know it. No, really it is. Except that your landlord might be a spirit, the tree outside your window may be a nymph, that flash in the sky wasn’t a trick of the light and that guy in the suit might not be just a bored lawyer on his lunch break.
