Lynne Fahnestalk’s gorgeous cover painting, The Kiss, seduces us into a volume that contains two diametrically opposite feature stories: ‘Like a Fish’ by Brandi Bird, a haunting, visceral horror with two very different types of monsters; and ‘One Last Frontier’ by Finnian Burnett, a gentle tribute to a beloved actor and TV franchise.
Fiction by Sherry Shahan, Mel Anastasiou, and JM Landels takes us into the near and further past with ‘Jesus Rides Shotgun’ and excerpts from The Extra Takes the Castle and The Shepherdess. Meanwhile, ‘The Promise’ by Jaclyn Morken and ‘Stolen Song’ by Kirsty Campbell transport us to a dystopian future, and a past that never was.
Art in many forms stars in ‘Lessons in Ballet’ by Isabel Harvest, ‘Cipher’ by Susan Pieters, and Raven runner-up ‘Pahlavan and The Nightingale’ by Niloufar-Lily Soltani. And birds take centre stage with Raven winner ‘She Is Magic, She Is Myst’ by Avery Other, as well as in poetry by Maria Giesbrecht and Greer Stothers.
Finally, contrast city and country life with ‘Almost Ready’ by Alex Kitt, poetry by KL Shilling, and Raven runner-up ‘Second Helping at Conchita’s Diner’ by Mitchell Toews.
