For centuries the Warders' Circle on the neutral islands of Twaa-Fei has given the countries of the sky a way to avoid war, settling their disputes through formal, magical duels. But the Circle's ability to maintain peace is fading: the Mertikan Empire is preparing for conquest and the trade nation of Quloo is sinking, stripped of the aerstone that keeps both ships and island a-sky. When upstart Kris Denn tries to win their island a seat in the Warder’s Circle and colonial subject Oda no Michiko discovers that her conquered nation's past is not what she's been told, they upset the balance of power. The storm they bring will bind all the peoples of the sky together...or tear them apart.

Do Not Go Quietly
Author: Jason Sizemore
Publisher: Apex Publications
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 406
Book Description
Resistance. Revolution. Standing up and demanding to have your space, your say, your right to be. From small acts of defiance to protests that shut down cities, Do Not Go Quietly is an anthology of science fiction and fantasy short stories about those who resist. Within this anthology, we will chronicle the fight for what is just and right, and what that means: from leading revolutions to the simple act of saying “No.” Resistance can be a small act of everyday defiance. And other times, resistance means massive movements that topple governments and become iconic historical moments. Either way, there is power in these acts, and the contributors in Do Not Go Quietly will harness that power to shake our readers to the core. We are subordinates to a power base that is actively working to solidify its grip on the world. Now is time to stand up and raise your voice and tell the world that enough is enough! TABLE OF CONTENTS: John Hornor Jacobs - "Glossolalia" A. Merc Rustad - "The Judith Plague" Maurice Broaddus/Nayad Monroe - "What the Mountain Wants" Karin Lowachee - "Sympathizer" Brooke Bolander - "Kindle" Cassandra Khaw - "What We Have Chosen to Love" Fran Wilde - "The Society for the Reclamation of Words and Meaning" Rich Larson - "Scurry" Sarah Pinsker - "Everything Is Closed Today" Sheree Renée Thomas - "Thirteen Year Long Song" Dee Warrick - "Nobody Lives in the Swamp" Russell Nichols - "Rage Against the Vending Machine" Meg Elison - "Hey Alexa" Marie Vibbert - "South of the Waffle House" Veronica Brush - "Face" Jo Miles - "Choose Your Truth" Rachael K. Jones - "Oil Under Her Tongue" Eugenia Triantafyllou - "April Teeth" E. Catherine Tobler - "Kill the Darlings (Silicone Sister Remix)" Shanna Germain - "Salted Bone and Silent Sea" Cover art by Marcela Bolívar.
