Bards and Sages Quarterly (January 2022)

Now in our 14th year of publication, the Bards and Sages Quarterly strives to bring fans of speculative fiction a variety of new and established voices to enjoy. Each issue features an eclectic range of styles and voices to delight audiences. This issue features works by Alice Hathaway, Xan van Rooyen, Naomi Libicki & Alter S. Reiss, Julie Reeser, Jeff Rona, Jeff Dosser, Craig Fishbane, and Dylan King. A selkie on a quest for revenge against the one responsible for her sister's death undercovers more than she bargained for in "Hallfrid." A passenger at a Tokyo train station transforms into a miniature version of a Japanese movie monster...then things really start to get weird in "The Subterranean Beasts of Electric Town." In the competition for souls, the Devil turns to a digital platform in "Patron of the Dark Arts." These and other tales in this issue.
