Publisher Comments:

Unexpected tales of the fantastic, and other odd musings by Nalo Hopkinson Karen Joy Fowler Karen Russell Jeffrey Ford among many others.

Contains STORIES by the AMAZING Jeffrey Ford, the FABULOUS Karen Joy Fowler, the UNLIKELY Kelly Link, the THRILLING Nalo Hopkinson, the SHOCKINGLY GOOD Karen Russell, the UNNERVING James Sallis, and dozens of UNCANNY others, as well as USEFUL lists of many kinds and STRAIGHT-SHOOTING advice from Aunt Gwenda.

Review:

"Genre-blurring stories, poems and articles by a few major authors and a host of relative unknowns appear in this oddly compelling excursion into the realm of the surreal and interstitial. The standouts are a diverse lot: Nalo Hopkinson's exquisitely visceral folkloric allegory 'Tan-Tan and Dry Bone,' Sarah Monette's darkly romantic 'Three Letters from the Queen of Elfland,' the hilarious illustrations of Sara Rojo and narration of Lawrence Schimel in 'The Well-Dressed Wolf,' Richard Butner's appropriately dry 'How to Make a Martini.' Link and Grant also unabashedly include surprisingly sub-par examples of their own work. With a major SF imprint publishing this hefty anthology, LCRW's times as a low-profile fringe zine may be at an end, though it remains to be seen whether mainstream readers will be convinced to swell the ranks of its relatively few but utterly devoted subscribers."

Michael Carter, October 10, 2007 (view all comments by Michael Carter)
An eclectic collection of stories, articles, and musings by some of our best new writers.
Some are experimental and avant-garde, but don't be scared off. This is good solid writing to be read.
Enjoy!
