This special bundle package contains all nine volumes of Bardic Tales and Sage Advice. The first volume of our anthology series was published in 2005 and was originally intended as a single collection of fantasy, horror, and science fiction short stories and poetry. In 2010, we published Volume Two and transformed the project into an annual celebration of speculative fiction. Over the years, this anthology has featured a wide variety of emerging and established speculative fiction authors. Featuring the winners of our annual charity writing competition, the winners of our annual Reader's Choice awards, and select other authors, we consider these volumes a wonderful sampler of the range of styles to be found in the speculative genres.

Bardic Tales and Sage Advice: 2005 to 2017

“I cannot die.” For Jack Chandler, death meant eventually being reunited with his wife, who had died in a car accident a year earlier. But that small comfort is shattered when he is shot by a strange duo seeking his help against a mysterious entity known as the Shadowman. Now Jack must come to terms with this “Gift” that has upended his life and find the strength to confront a monster than cannot die.
