Out Now: Mirages & Speculations

Posted by Rampant Coyote on August 21, 2017

It’s Eclipse Day out here in the Utah desert, although we’re only going to be hitting around 90%. A lot of folks have headed north to Idaho to not-see the sun, and to experience all the weird stuff that takes place in the shadow of the moon. Me? I’ll be working my butt off at the day job, what else?

However, I would like to announce that Mirages and Speculations is officially on sale, an anthology that includes my story, “Voices of the Dead.” This story is a sword-and-sorcery fantasy about a man haunted by the pleas of his dead wife, who goes to a temple in the desert to obtain a relic to save her from the terrible beings who have stolen her soul before it passed into the afterlife. But …  there’s always a ‘but,’ right?

As I mentioned before, I know or am familiar with many of these authors, and they are skilled storytellers whom I admire. I’m honored and excited to share the table of contents with them. Hopefully you’ll find a number of desert-themed stories in this anthology that you’ll enjoy, and discover some authors you’ll like.

So far, only the digital version is available. The paperback version is being proofed this week, and should be available soon. But if you are interested in the price and convenience of digital, here’s where you can find the anthology:

Incidentally, if you are looking for more of my other published stories, my author page on Amazon is starting to look kind of busy, and it doesn’t even list all of my published works. I’m still looking forward to the day it lists books entirely authored by me, but that will be a few more months. 🙂
