These stories showcase disabled characters winning against all odds.
Outsmarting deadly video games, hunting the predatory monster in the
woods, rooting out evil within their community, finding love and
revenge with their newly turned vampire friend―this anthology upends
expectations of the roles disabled people can play in horror. With
visibly and invisibly disabled characters whose illnesses include
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Crohn’s disease, diabetes, PTSD, and more, each
entry also includes a short essay from the author about the conditions
portrayed in their stories to further contextualize their characters’
perspectives. From breaking ancient curses to defying death itself,
these 13 horror stories cast disabled characters as heroes we can all
root for.
Discover the infinite realms of asexual love across sci-fi,
fantasy, and contemporary stories From a wheelchair user racing to
save her kidnapped girlfriend and a little mermaid who loves her
sisters more than suitors, to a slayer whose virgin blood keeps
attracting monsters, the stories of this anthology are anything but
conventional. Whether adventuring through space, outsmarting a
vengeful water spirit, or surviving haunted cemeteries, no two aces
are the same in these 14 unique works that highlight asexual
romance, aromantic love, and identities across the asexual
spectrum.
EXPLOITATION. MANIPULATION. DESPERATION. Having been tricked into binding herself to the Enhanced Ones in the War of Humanity, Untamed human Seven Sarr has never felt more exploited or used. When Raleigh forces her to develop her Seer powers and use them on a most innocent target, Seven knows it’s only a matter of time before the Enhanced Ones use her to wipe out the rest of her people. Certain that the only way to save the Untamed would be to get back full control of her soul, Seven must get the Gods and Goddesses to trust her again. Only they can destroy her Enhanced Promise Marks and prevent her enemy from controlling her. But these are the same Gods and Goddesses who have already branded Seven a traitor and exiled her from the Dream Land, fearing she will cause their deaths. With no way to contact the Gods and Goddesses herself, Seven needs help. And she needs it quickly, before the war is over and she loses Corin, and the rest of the Untamed, for good. Yet, in a world as dangerous as this, only one thing’s for sure: no one trusts a traitor twice.
