HENGE, by Ross Whitlock, Now in Print!

“This book is a treasure. Claris Jaden is an immediately compelling character, and the reader gets drawn right into her world, rich with magic, complicated by history, and filled with both intriguing friends and fascinating foes. The story is epic, but the world is a welcoming place that you’ll want to protect. I’ll be thinking about the world of Henge for a long time, and I wish I could spend more time there.”

Speaking of Short Fiction…

An alien who can paint on a soap bubble. A soldier whose wounds can always be healed. A woman famous for Seeing the future, while her true talent, healing, is ignored. Iridescent beings inhabit Whitlock’s dreams. Some of these tales are fantasy, some are science fiction, some are a bit political and more than a bit surreal, but one thing you can be sure of, every one of then will stir your emotions. Love them or hate them, you won’t be bored.

Includes 20 stories written between 1985 and now. Most have been published before but you’ll also find a couple of new ones just seeing the light of day. Find out more here…
