A Rumor of Angels A Tor.Com Original
"A Rumor of Angels", by Dale Bailey, is a fantasy novelette that takes place during the period of the dust bowl in the American Midwest. A teenage boy walks away from his father's wasted farm to follow the other travelers heading west where there is a rumor of angels. "The stark mimetic power of 'A Rumor of Angels,' with its dusty, Steinbeckian heat and poverty, climaxes in a totally organic but still unexpected supernatural fashion."--Locus At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
