(Calgary, Alberta) EDGE Science Fiction and Fantasy Publishing is delighted to announce that Tesseracts Fifteen: A Case of Quite Curious Tales, is now open for submissions.
Submissions are open from September 1, 2010 thru November 30, 2010.
For this volume, Julie Czerneda and Susan MacGregor have agreed to co-edit.
"We seek wonder and astonishment." said the editors. "Stories that engage the imagination, inspire dreams, and leave hope in their wake." Both Czerneda and MacGregor want all Canadian speculative fiction writers to "write what will become the classics for a new generation of readers, to be remembered, fondly, for years to come."
We have received two new reviews for EVOLVE:Vampire Stories of the New Undead, edited by Nancy Kilpatrick.
Krista D. Ball reviewed EVOLVE:Vampire Stories of the New Undead on her blog.
"Evolve has added several authors to my “must read” list... I highly recommend picking up this collection if you are a fan of vampires and want to see a new take on the supernatural beings." — Krista D. Ball
Reviewer Paul Lappen has posted a review about EVOLVE:Vampire Stories of the New Undead on Objectivelyreviewed.com and Lunch.com.
"Here is a first-rate bunch of stories...This is very much worth reading." — Paul Lappen, Objectivelyreviewed.com and Lunch.com

Praise For DRUIDS
“This is such a terrific book! It combines historical fiction with fantasy to deliver a spellbinding story of love, war, revenge, and magic. I couldn't put it down!” — Amanda R., Shelfari
(July,2010)
Brian Rathbone, podcaster of Blog Talk Radio's Podioracket, reviewed Lynda William's The Courtesan Prince on Goodreads...
"The Courtesan Prince is a space adventure charged with sexual energy and ambiguity. Though not heavily laden with technology, it is clear that Williams possesses a strong technical mind. As a writer and computer programmer, I enjoyed the references to "blits" and other subtle touches that leant to greater believability. I look forward to reading more of the Okal Rel series." — Brian Rathbone, Goodreads.

Editor extraordinaire Ellen Datlow has kindly placed Gaslight Grotesque: Nightmare Tales of Sherlock Holmes on her list of notable anthology titles fit for potential World Fantasy Award nomination. Ellen notes that: "Gaslight Grotesque is surprisingly fresh and entertaining, possibly because it’s the rare volume that allows Holmes and Watson to be dumbfounded by matters (which is course, the antithesis of the ratiocination for which Holmes is known. There’s much that’s actually supernatural in here. The most interesting stories are by Neil Jackson, Robert Lauderdale, J. R. Campbell, and Barbara Roden." - Ellen Datlow
