BUGLER OF DEATH
When Breaks the Maelstrom is a buffet of multinational intergalactic short stories that tend to mask genre lines. The stories defy convention because they are fantastical and interlude into the lives of men, women, children, and otherworldly beings. Some events cannot be explained, except we accept the supernatural. When we can break through the natural world's barrier, it is then that we can see other possibilities. We can suggest that myths, phenomena, and legends may be familiar with reality. It's an insight into situations we all may have faced at one time or another. Since all skeletons in closets are not yet fleshless, it is only proper that we remake the frame to envision its beginnings. Several stories are character continuations, such as Bounty Hunter: Japanese Style, Moon Trouble, and The Unnameable. These tales loom prominently in their telling that they are the adventurers, adventures so many of us desire to be or become. Please enjoy as you venture into original and undiscovered realms of fantasy and science fiction.
