Visiting Maze and Other Quandaries by Michael Cisco (.PDF)
Posted by: miguel1984 at Yesterday, 5:28 am in
Visiting Maze and Other Quandaries by Michael Cisco and Harry O. Morris
Requirements: .PDF reader, 133MB
Overview: The macabre maestro of the modern age has arrived and he takes the form of Michael Cisco, a man whose stories reek of the putrescent pulp of yesteryear, revitalized and tailored to suit our problematic times. They are not just observation pieces or expressions of nihilism for the sake of sulking. His warped Poe-esque tales are a literary Rubik's Cube, where even beauty can be found in the disarray of colors. You can never really be sure of your place because you're always on shaky ground. And it's up to you to move the blocks to find your way out, if you've got the guts to persevere.
Highly interpretative and deeply unsettling, the stories in Cisco's Visiting Maze and Other Quandaries will make you feel like you're floating through the banks of a murky river, winding through dense fog where there's no shoreline to dock. Venture far enough and you won't be able to look back and see around the bend. For Cisco has managed to thwart all efforts, pushing far into a void where escape is futile unless you're prepared to go all the way.

The Secret of Ventriloquism by Jon Padgett (.ePUB)
Posted by: miguel1984 at Yesterday, 4:40 am in
The Secret of Ventriloquism by Jon Padgett
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 1.26MB
Overview: With themes reminiscent of Shirley Jackson, Thomas Ligotti and Bruno Schulz, but with a strikingly unique vision, Jon Padgett's The Secret of Ventriloquism heralds the arrival of a significant new literary talent.
Padgett's work explores the mystery of human suffering, the agony of personal existence and the ghastly means by which someone might achieve salvation from both. A bullied child who seeks vengeance within a bed's hollow box spring, a lucid dreamer haunted by an impossible house, a dummy that reveals its own anatomy in 20 simple steps, a stuttering librarian who holds the key to a mill town's unspeakable secrets, a commuter whose worldview is shattered by two words printed on a cardboard sign and an aspiring ventriloquist who spends a little too much time looking at himself in a mirror. And the presence that speaks through them all.

The Tethered Mage by Melissa Caruso (Swords and Fire #1)
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 3.6 MB
Overview: In the Raverran Empire, magic is scarce and those born with power are strictly controlled -- taken as children and conscripted into the Falcon Army.
Zaira has lived her life on the streets to avoid this fate, hiding her mage-mark and thieving to survive. But hers is a rare and dangerous magic, one that threatens the entire empire.
Lady Amalia Cornaro was never meant to be a Falconer. Heiress and scholar, she was born into a treacherous world of political machinations.
But fate has bound the heir and the mage. And as war looms on the horizon, a single spark could turn their city into a pyre.

Another World: A Science Fiction Anthology by Gardner Dozois (.ePUB)
Posted by: Ebook-Collector at Apr 23rd, 2024, 9:32 pm in
Another World: A Science Fiction Anthology by Gardner Dozois (Editor)
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 0.7MB
Overview: A collection of science fiction classics edited and introduced by the winner of fifteen Hugo awards for best editor, Gardner Dozois.
From the introduction:
Here is life on another world, in another place, another time. Here is what it is like to wear an alien skin. Here are new concepts, new vistas, magic. . . "Why read science fiction?" It's alive in a world of dead art, dead minds, dead institutions; it's a bright-eyed, irreverent little animal scurrying through a petrified landscape of old dead trees; it's unashamedly potent and prolific in a world that grows increasingly weary and sterile; it dares to raise its voice in boisterous joy, sorrow, and anger in a place full of sour silence and dead echoes.
"A fine idea for an anthology – 'adventures in otherness' is really what SF is all about, isn't it? – and the stories . . . are a very neat mixture of themes and literary methods, and of course a bunch of very fine examples of first-class narrative prose . . .an artful and elegant group, intelligently chosen."—Robert Silverberg
