Meet Iain Rowan at infinities and beyond, where he not only tells about the new free sampler from infinity plus, but also leads you to another freebie, Rowan's unhealthkick-for-weak-hearts "One Step Closer" from Nowhere to Go, his crime collection that is definitely not lounging.
an aside
I hope that Rowan gets the breaks he needs, as there is so much drab and predictable crime fiction around—and I include Ian Rankin in that lot, whose characters make me think of empty cardboard boxes in the rain. I don't usually hiss at books I've read, leaving that to the experts; but I bought one of his bestsellers at an airport for a Sydney—Europe tortureflight, and partway through the book I found myself reaching for the airline magazine to break the boredom.
I really liked 'One Step Closer'.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that you liked this superb story.
ReplyDeleteThis is a good opportunity to recommend another great free read: your own story "Come Tomorrow" in the Virtuous Medlar Circle. It thrilled me that Ellen Datlow awarded your story an Honorable Mention for Best Horror of the Year, Volume Three.
