[NightBird]

Free novella from Omnium Gatherum by S.P. Miskowski: Delphine Dodd.

Before the town had a name, people buried their dead on the mountainside. Now Mont des Morts exists only in memory but its ghosts still haunt Delphine's family.

First in a series of three novellas set in the world of Knock Knock.

Letters from Hades by Jeffrey Thomas is $2.99. From Bedlam/Necro.

A man awakens in Hell where he is schooled in the ways of the damned. And once educated, he is released to wander Hell on his own. He journeys from one city to the next, dodging demon patrols and avenging angels hunting the damned for sport. Along the way to the city of Oblivion, he discovers a band of rebellious damned have left a tortured and beautiful demon to rot. He rescues her and sets in motion a series of events that could lead to the final battle between Heaven and Hell, angel and demon, demon and damned.

LETTERS FROM HADES is a travelogue of Hell—a world not that far from the very world we live in now. It is a story of rebellion, a story of love and a story of hope and rebirth set in a beautifully dark and textured world brought to brilliant life by Jeffrey Thomas, the acclaimed author of PUNKTOWN.

Voices from Hades, short stories continuing this series, is also $2.99.

If the dead could speak from the afterlife, what might they tell us? How might they warn us?
