The Lonely ZenithThe empire of Aethelgard was a clockwork marvel of brass and steam, a city where the laws of physics were merely suggestions for those with the will to rewrite them. Julian was a scavenger in the soot-stained alleys of the Lower Ward, a boy who spent his days diving into the scrap-heaps of the Great Engine, searching for fragments of the Old World. Then he found the Chronos Key. It was a device...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 16 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Ashes of IcarusThe Ashes of Icarus The cicadas screamed in the heat, a sound like a thousand tiny saws cutting through wood. Silas Blackwood stood at the edge of the plantation, his boots sinking into the red clay, and watched the last oak tree sway in the wind. It was the only tree left on three hundred acres of dead earth, and even it was dying, its leaves turning brown at the edges, its branches sagging...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 39 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Woman Who Forgot the StarsThe Woman Who Forgot the StarsThe ship did not turn back. Tom Calloway stood on the black sand of the Shetland isle and watched the white hull shrink until it was only a line between sea and sky, then nothing at all. The wind carried the smell of salt and wet iron. He pulled his coat tighter and turned inland.The island was smaller than he expected. A rusted skeleton of a landmass jutting from...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 28 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Lonely AltarThe wind in Nebraska didn't blow; it scraped. It scraped the paint off the barns and the hope off the people. Thomas spent his days in a field of dying corn, his hands calloused and stained with the black earth of a land that hated him. He didn't look like a man who had once commanded legions in a dream of a previous life. He looked like a man who had spent forty years fighting a losing battle...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 45 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Perfect SacrificeThe town of Oakhaven was a masterpiece of suburban perfection. The lawns were a uniform emerald green, the white picket fences were flawlessly painted, and the smiles of the residents were as bright and empty as polished porcelain. Adam was the crown jewel of Oakhaven. He was the mayor, the philanthropist, the man who had solved every problem the town had ever faced. He was a man who had lived...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 38 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Keeper of Beauregard HouseShe died alone, which was fitting, because she had lived alone for seven years before that, which was fitting, because the house had been killing itself slowly for three generations and she had been the last one willing to watch it happen. Miss Cora Beauregard expired in the master bedroom on a Tuesday in October, 1898. The room faced east, toward the river, and the light that found her through...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 40 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Devil in the DetailsThe crystal came to me wrapped in brown paper and tied with twine, delivered by a kid no older than sixteen who wouldn't look me in the eye and left before I could ask him who sent him. I found it on my desk at 2:17 AM on a Monday in March, sitting right where I'd left my half-empty bottle of rye and a stack of unpaid bills. I'm Ray Callahan. I'm a private investigator, and in 1947 Los Angeles,...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 20 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

Iron DiscFrank Merwin woke at six in the morning because he always woke at six in the morning, which was twenty-eight years of habit and not because anything that morning was different from any other morning in the four months since the ring appeared in the sky. The ring was in the sky now whether you looked at it or not. That was the thing about the ring. It didn't ask. It didn't knock. It just got...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 20 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Roots of Magnolia ObservatoryThe magnolia trees had been there longer than the house. Catherine Beauregard knew this because her grandfather had told her so, sitting on the veranda with a glass of sweet tea and a pipe that smelled of cherrywood and memory. "Those trees," he had said, "were here before the war, before the debt, before the world decided that the Beauregards were finished. They will be here after." She had...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 22 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση
