Free SF, Fantasy and Horror Fiction for 12/22/2012
Yes, I admit it. More theft from Dave Tackett despite the rumour that his links are laced with Ghost Chili Powder. Do not get any of it in your eyes.
I doubt I’ll be doing up any posts for the next few days as Festivus begins tomorrow and in my family it runs until I sober up… let’s call it middle of next week. You know what to do if you’re missing me.
What’s special about today’s free fiction?
- The Revelator continues after a long pause with a special We ❤ Lovecraft Issue.
- David Moody wraps up his “Anti-” Science Fiction novel Trust with two chapters and an epilogue.
- Words cannot describe the oddities that are Randy Porter’s novelettes.
