The Fitzgerald Equation
The party lasted three days and ended with a single phone call. Edward Ashworth stood in the center of his apartment on Fifth Avenue and listened to the phone ring while the sound of jazz drifted up from the street below—brass instruments playing something fast and bright and desperately alive, the kind of music that tried to outrun the silence that was coming. He picked up the receiver on the...

The Garden of Small Things
The Garden of Small ThingsAct I: The BurningThe day the sun grew angry, Ava McAlister was playing her grandmother's piano in a house that no longer exists.She remembered the sound—her grandmother's hands moving across the keys, playing Jelly Roll Morton with a ferocity that made the walls vibrate. The house was in Tremé, the oldest neighborhood in New Orleans, where the streets were paved with...

THE DRY STATIC
ACT I: THE BOOT (20%) The boot was a left foot. Size nine. Leather, cracked at the ankle, the toe scuffed from walking over things that weren't pavement. Billy found it on Day 1, in the dust in front of a building that used to be a shop. He picked it up, turned it over in his hands, put it in his pack. He didn't know why. It was just a boot. But it was a boot with a story, and Billy liked...

THE LAST LIGHT OF NEW CARTHAGE
I found Grandfather's diary in the cellar on a Tuesday in October, 1872. The house was cold—the coal fire had been banked too early, as it always is when one lives alone—and the smell of damp stone and forgotten things rose to meet me as I descended the narrow stairs with a candle in my hand. There, behind a stack of water-stained furniture covers, in a tin box whose lock had rusted solid, was...

THE LAST WALL
The stone was cold beneath Edward's gloved hands. He ran his palm along the face of it, feeling for the cracks his predecessors had spent a thousand years cataloguing. There were none today. The wall held. It always held. Edward Blackthorne, seventieth Lord Keeper of the Morvayne Ramparts, walked the parapet at midnight, as he had every night for twelve years. The moon was a sliver of bone in a...

The corner of seventh
The thing about Brooklyn is that nobody notices when it ends. Not because it ends loudly. Because it ends the way a neighborhood ends when the rent goes up too high and the bodega becomes a boutique and the bodega guy moves to Queens and the street where you grew up has a new name that nobody uses. Quietly. Systematically. Without anyone throwing a punch. Eliot Rosenberg lived on the corner of...

The Plantation Whisper
The heat in Red River Parish did not arrive so much as it accumulated, layer upon layer, until the air itself seemed to press against your skin like a wet cloth. Ellis Harper arrived in Clifton on a Tuesday in October, when the cotton had been picked and the fields lay brown and empty beneath a sky the color of tarnished silver. He came from Chicago with a suitcase, a press pass from the...

The Symphony of the Spheres
The conservatory was a spire of glass and ivory, floating amidst the iridescent clouds of the Aethelgard Nebula. Inside, the air tasted of ozone and jasmine. Clara stood at the center of the Great Hall, her violin tucked under her chin, the bow poised like a needle over the strings. For centuries, the inhabitants of the Nebula had lived in fear of the "Shatterers," a nomadic fleet of...

Sample V-13: The Scavenger's Prayer
The city of Rust was a graveyard of skyscrapers, where the wind howled through shattered windows like a dying animal. Jax lived in the "Sinks," the lowest level of the city, where the rain was acidic and the only currency was usable copper. Jax was a scavenger, a rat in the ruins. He survived by knowing which corridors were haunted by feral drones and which basements held the last scraps of...

The Knight of Stars
The desert wind carried the smell of smoke and blood. Roland de Montfort stood on the ridge above Acre, watching the crusader camp sprawl below him like a wounded beast. They had been besieging the city for three months. Three months of heat, of disease, of watching men die for a tomb they had never seen. In his saddlebag lay the Book of Stars. He had found it in a ruined monastery outside...

The Mirror Man of 42nd Street
The first time Jack Donovan saw the man play pool, he thought it was a trick. Not a supernatural one—just a mechanical one. The guy at the table on 42nd Street had a cue grip that was too tight, a stance that was too still, and an angle calculation in his eyes that didn't belong to a human being. Donovan had been in the war. He'd seen snipers who could hit a dime at two hundred yards. This was...
