A Fine and Dangerous Season

By Martin L Shoemaker

"This SEASON evokes every kind of Bradbury Weather - a worthy celebration of storytellers and the storms they summon."
- James A. Owen, author of The Chronicles of the Imaginarium Geographica

Two science fiction writers, their editor, and a comatose mathematician wage war against their own fiction as ancient Celtic spirits stalk the Earth, hiding in dreams while sowing terror and death.

But each of these unlikely heroes fights alone, unaware of the others, each with only a slice of the truth. Can a missing writer draw them together in time to stop the nightmares from unleashing their terrible power upon a new millennium?

This is a story about stories, and about what is unnoticed in the world around us. The tale is told through the eyes of four characters who don't realize that their lives are drawing together in the streets and neighborhoods of their home town. Interspersed with the stories of their lives are the tales that they publish in Un/Revealed, a struggling science fiction magazine. But where does fiction end and dangerous reality begin?

In the tradition of Bradbury's Dandelion Wine, this is a book of stories that twine together into a larger, darker narrative. Oh, and there's a Donut Galaxy, Harry Houdini, James Doohan, and a vicious slush pile; and it all makes sense in the end.
