THIS MONTH, we bid a fond farewell to the Challenger and all his merry chums. We follow that with a new round up of all that's going on in the world of fantasy and horror publishing. Next an argumentative couple go on a doomed holiday. Down Picklock Lane, the aliens prepare to invade. A man encounters his spit and image. A tax gatherer has trouble up in the hills. One man faces Death--repeatedly. An author is consigned to an awful fate. And we reach the grand finale of Matt Spencer's 'Some Way Home'. Good news for Spencer fans: next week we begin a 14 part serial by the author, entitled Church of the Falcon. Religion displaces science. Penny finds a seashell on the beach. Fleishman and Graves have another funeral to direct. The people of Earth receive a very special message. Godan encounters skeletal rats. Kassi is followed by an island. The Captain conducts a wedding. And, exclusive to the print and ebook editions, an elf sets out on a journey of self-discovery across the post-apocalyptic wasteland of former Yugoslavia.
