In our 11th issue we're excited to bring you: Aaron Emmel's story "A Protector on the Road," his follow up to the story "Irini," which we originally published in issue five. James Kane graces us with a story where sword and sorcery literally collide in the hardboiled fantasy "The Red Star Assassin." A young woman is pursued into an antique shop filled with curiosities in Benjamin Chandler's "The Living Texts of Sildeen," but what can the proprietor do against a hardened killer? Our cover story is "Frail Memorials" by J.C. Pillard where a young man discovers that not only are ghosts real, they are an integral part of his new job. Erin K. Wagner's "See You in the Next Regime" is a sci-fi tale of love and war and betrayal. C.J. Casey gives us a Western world that ended in 1859 in "Fire and Wool," featuring an investigation into a different kind of livestock raid. "Dust Claims Dust" by Erica Ruppert is a fantasy tale of war and forbidden love (yes, we're seeing a sort of pattern here, aren't you?) that left us with a bit of dust in our eyes. A band of desperadoes get their comeuppance when they fall prey to a killing curse in "A Touch of Shade" by Gary Robbe. Finally, "Dreaming of Chester" by Kevin M. Folliard is a great intersection of crime, horror, and science-fiction set on the Australian coast.
