Jm Landels Livres

Beneath the eerie, arid cover by Tais Teng you'll find an exciting pre-release peek at Advent by Michael Kamakana; transformative short fiction from Sylvia Stopforth, Richard J O'Brien, and Susan Pieters; aliens and insects from Jasmin Nyack and Charity Tahmaseb; poetry from James Norcliffe and Maria Pascualy; Spencer Stevens in the age of steam; runaway-turned-fugitive Allaigna in Aria; a return visit to Nine Isles with Joseph Stilwell and Hugh Henderson; and the winner of the Bumblebee Flash Fiction Contest.

Beneath the coastal landscape of Tatjana Mirkov-Popovicki's Helby Island Afternoon, families navigate magic, migration, murder, and mayhem in short fiction from Brenda Carre, Elsa M Carruthers, Hajera Khaja, Graham Robert Scott, Janet Smith, and Colleen Anderson. Matthew Nielsen searches for belonging and the Bumblebee winner alights. Allaigna faces new adventures in Oburakor by JM Landels. And Frankie Ray returns for a final bow in the last installment of The Extra by Mel Anastasiou.

In this issue: Take a ride down the river with kc dyer on Akem's Seabus. Stop along the way for haunting fiction from Patrick Bollivar, Brandon Crilly, and Erin Kirsh, with a ghost at the end of the bed for Mel Anastasiou's Stella Ryman, and a lighter side of hell from FJ Bergmann. Magpie poetry award winners Oak Morse, Leah Komar, and Glenn Pape take us to three different kinds of hell; Susan Pieters and Rina Piccolo carry us to the stars in the past and future; and Greg Brown brings us back to where the heart is, while the young hero of Allaigna's Song by JM Landels get ever farther from home.
