Free SF, Fantasy and Horror Fiction for 6/4/2013
Don’t forget: I’m ragging on about my After The Fires Went Out series this month, leading up to the big release of After The Fires Went Out: Shards on June 28th. So far there’s the serialized first “episode” of Coyote, as well as a fancy Goodreads giveaway for both books.
