Jack Dann recommends
Murphy's Lawless (2020)
(Murphy's Lawless)
Griffin Barber, Kacey Ezell, Charles E Gannon, Kevin Ikenberry, Chris Kennedy, Mike Massa and Mark Wandrey
"If you're looking for real, honest, fast-paced, well thought out, true sense-of-wonder science fiction, Charles Gannon . . . has it all--in spades. Gannon writes precisely constructed fiction with absolute authority. Oh, and as you might have guessed: I'm a fan!"
Lotus Blue (2017)
Cat Sparks
"Lotus Blue is SF adventure on steroids. A dystopian vision worthy of H. Rider Haggard and the Mad Max film franchise."
The Hall of Lost Footsteps (2011)
Sara Douglass
"You must know that Sara Douglass is the brilliant author of several best-selling fantasy series. She has earned her well-deserved awards and reputation by writing on a grand scale-but I'll let you in on a little secret: she is one fabulous short story writer! Although you can easily find her books, for she is prolific and well-published novelist, you'd have to dig a bit to find the glittering gems that are her short stories. Until now. The Hall of the Lost Footsteps is a must-read! The stories will simply knock you out."
