Another beautifully understated cover by the talented Amanda Rainey and another wonderful collection from one of Australia’s talented crop of female writers.
I still don’t have a release date for it but it’s out sometime this year, coming in as volume 8 of the Twelve Planets Series.
Synopsis:
An Australian Air Force base patrolled by werewolves. A planet where wages are paid in luck. A future where copies are made of criminals to interpret their dark dreams. A medieval cavalry of mothers who are only permitted to take as many lives as they have created.
In every world, an imbalance of power. Something terribly askew between women and men, humans and wolves, citizens and constructs, light and dark.
In every world, asymmetry.
The TOC:
- Introduction -Nancy Kress
- After Hours
- Zadie, Scythe of the West
- Wish Me Luck
- Seven Days in Paris
You will be able to purchase this volume from Twelfth Planet Press shortly, but if you are interested in the concept of 12 volumes of speculative fiction from as selection Australia’s top female speculative fiction writers, go here.
It’s worth noting that Thoraiya is eligible for the John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer
