Publisher's Synopsis
Ten brand new science fiction and fantasy stories. Fighting oppression and finding a voice in Blood on the Water. Time travelling musicians in Eight Bar Blues and you Ain't Goin' Home. Fantasy adventure in The Great Hunt, Prison and survival in Lost to the Dark, bees in space in The First Astronomers of Carrick, caught by the mob in The Scars you Keep. Shattered dreams in The Truth about Fairy Tales and our appetite for self-destruction laid bare in Glo-Pop pack the middle. Then we end with Matt Webb's A Hundred Years of Bottled Sunshine - therapy or punishment? All served with vintage wine and a wry smile.
It's a varied selection, covering fantasy, science fiction and with a healthy strain of horror cropping up in a few of these stories. More than ever, our fantastic writers have tackled issues and woven tales that make us think, smile, dream and shiver.
