Publisher's Synopsis
Welcome to Schlock's first edition of 2021. It's now ten years since your 'umble editor had the bright idea that it was about time he started editing a fantasy/sci-fi/horror webzine (although it took until April before the first issue saw the light), little anticipating the decade that awaited him. More of that in the spring; for the moment we have a story of suburban wolves; shockingly undemocratic goings on Picklock Lane; and a story of bad odours and revenge is followed by another science fantasy detective adventure of Kassi and Sebastian.Nostalgic memories unfold a tale of folk horror; an ageing hippie encounters a vampire; and a gangster steals a mad a scientist's invention with chaotic results. Strange and magical things are going on behind the conventional facade of modern-day Edinburgh. Meanwhile, a Clock Criminal travels into the past. The Florentine Vampire sates all his lusts. And Gruntz eliminates another parasite.
