The Machine Man Letters by Monte Davis
He carries a 450in³ loaded with 850 Bubble Brights, and he means business! He foils a robbery with a gumball machine, lusts after a semi-colon, and swindles a Nigerian widow out of millions of dollars. Oh, and a page from his Tarzan book is missing.
Monte Davis's "The Machine Man Letters" gives us a glimpse of what it must be like to be sane in an asylum.

Maera the Minoan by Marsheila Rockwell (chapbook)
This first release in a series of Lesser Known Myths takes the interestingly-clad heroine on an epic journey from Cnossos, the capital of the Minoan Civilization, through some perils you might know, and others you've never heard of until now, all the way to the Land of Beyond, as Maera struggles to save her people, outwit the gods, and have a rollicking good time to boot. The illustrations by Teri Santitoro and award-winning Janis Marshall make this an attraction you won't want to miss.

The Missionary by Sandra C. Stixrude
Father Gabriel arrives on Altair Tertia, where three previous missionaries have failed to do God's work, including Father Julius, whom the natives tried to stuff into a tree. The natives look like winged angels without reproductive organs. And they answer to an authority that may be higher than Father Gabriel's.
So what's a missionary to do when he has to convert an entire planet? Not just the people . . . but the actual, whole planet.
It's a question of authority . . .

The Mouths that Remain by Gavin Salisbury
"The Mouths That Remain is Gavin Salisbury's major collection of speculative poetry. His work is cutting-edge incisive, and always travels "the view not taken." Think David Kopaska-Merkel with an English accent. It's for those who don't want to eat the whole box of chocolate, but could stand the maple creams and one or two of the nougats."

My Friend, The Poet by Terrie Leigh Relf
The collection focuses on poetry about and/or inspired by people she knows or think she knows or who know her. The collection is so extensive that even you--yes, YOU--may be in there somewhere. Consider, for example, some of the titles in this collection:
My friend, the storm maker
My friend, who writes in her dreams
My friend who’s not from earth
My friend, the literary genius who wants to do me in the back of his Jeep Cherokee
My friend who turns blue when she sees pyramids
As Relf writes: "Are these people real? Did this stuff really happen? I’ve heard it said that some things are just too weird to have been made up, other events are just too mundane to have been made up, and the rest, well, it’s “just” poetry, and so it may be all purely invention."
Or not.
So come find out who's who in the life of this off-beat free spirit.

The Mystery at Clermont House by Mark Anthony Brennan
Charles is a boy who has trouble getting along with others his age. They are too immature for him. Stephen, his tutor, intends to help Charles in both his studies and his social life at Clermont House.
But now there's a ghost in Clermont House, a girl about Charles's age. Stephen has caught a glimpse of her, but only Charles can truly see her. But who is she? Where did she come from? And why only Charles?
Around town it's said that Clermont House is spooky. Everywhere there's an icy touch, the touch of the dead. To solve the mysteries of Clermont House, Charles and Stephen will find much more than ghosts to frighten them. But who survives and who dies is not up to them. It's up to her.

Nyx by Tyree Campbell (novel)
Meet Nyx. She's alone on a remote world in the midst of an internecine struggle for resources. She's been ordered to kill someone who has not been identified. The nemesis who haunts her past is in charge of the opposition. An anthropologist wants her ass. A professional killer wants the rest of her. And she can't swim in the rivers.
She's a special operative with carte blanche to stack bodies like cordwood, if necessary, to accomplish her mission. Training and a dark past have emptied her of all emotions. Trust is a tool. Sex is a weapon. Loyalty is a blunt instrument. And there is no place whatsoever for sentiment in her work.
Until now.
Meet the Malasy. Lemuroid, humanoid, intelligent, sentient, sentimental. They are covered with chinchilla-like fur. Truth is a must in interpersonal relations, and erotic stimulation is the human equivalent of a handshake. Nyx has to work among them. Her life is about to change. It's dangerous, even fatal, to become her friend. But it is always fatal to be her enemy.

On the Other Side of the Eye by Bryan Thao Worra
This is a collection of speculative poetry. Here's a glimpse of it, taken from the review by Edward Cox: ". . . the jewel of part II is 'Five Fragments,' which also forms the collection’s longest poem. Set at a war exhibition, this piece suggests that our reason for solving problems is so we can create room to make the same mistakes again. History is selective in the minds of humans, and like fads, we chose to scrutinise single instances when history is an ocean filled with identical droplets. Teaching and schooling amount to nothing when the execution of war becomes as fast and fleeting as the next computer upgrade. The world has become almost question-less, lost within its own apathy, and Worra makes us wonder where we go from here."

Ossuary, a poetry collection by JoSelle Vanderhooft, based on art by Erzebet YellowBoy
Ossuary is a poetic tribute to the bone panels, bone scrolls and other art of artist, writer and publisher Erzebet YellowBoy. The twenty-four poems in the collection center upon the themes of decay and transformation in much the same way YellowBoy's work does. Some draw upon world myth and fairy tale, from the dismembering of Osiris in "Osiris, Seed-Scattered" to the schemes of the Greek Fates in "The Moriae's Tools" to numerous permutations of "Sleeping Beauty," YellowBoy's favorite fairy tale which follow the heroine's descent through dreams and her numerous transformations in body, mind and soul.
Additionally Ossuary seeks to explore the natural world from which the artist draws inspiration – the season's cycles, nature's mystery and, of course, the inevitability of death and the transforming process of decay. In Ossuary, the reader will find such things as the wizened beauty of an old woman tending her garden, descents through the grave's loamy underworld, and the phoenix-like bursting of a bush into flame.

Fantasy poetry that runs the gamut of emotions, from a candlelit dinner at the edge of the universe to a declaration of emotional independence.

Phasing by 7ARS
PHASING is an odyssey of art that takes you from the very beginning, and Santitoro's initial efforts with horses and angst, to the superb illustrations she does today that capture emotion, mood, and atmosphere like no other contemporary illustrator. You'll see the ragged street girl of "Help Wanted" become the immigrant waif in the holds of the ship for "Steerage," a poem in Karen Romanko's Stoker-recommended chapbook, Raven's Runes. And you'll see how Santitoro's minimalist poetry skills carry over into her art. With just a glimpse of legs and ankles, with just a pair of bound wrists, she conveys a vibrant sensuality in freeze-frame moments of sizzling emotions, as in "Allusions" and "Bigfoot's Love Slave." And she takes on various taboos in "Date With A Droid" and "Young Love."
Includes 8 color interior illustrations

The Poet's Workshop - and Beyond by Terrie Leigh Relf, M.A.
Terrie Leigh Relf, M.A., distills years of teaching and writing experience into a coherent yet entertainingly off-beat presentation of how to compose speculative poetry, what to do with it once you have composed it, and how to keep it from decomposing. Each section, from "Ordering Chaos" [with a side of Catastrophe, please, and hold the olives] to "The Kung Fu of Writing," from "Plotting with Playdough" to Unzipping a Rengay, is high on specifics and often includes anecdotal encouragement and examples that drive home the precise point she is making. This handbook contains everything you ever wanted to know about composing poetry, but were afraid to ask.

Pretty by Philip S. Meckley
Alice travels to England to study English, meets a handsome stranger, and visits him in his manor. The place is so large that there is no end to its secrets, and Alice soon finds herself embroiled in the most sordid of them. It's best just to stay under the covers when things go bump in the night, but she can't do that.
Because she's the one that's going bump.
There's no rabbit hole at Ensleigh Manor, but Alice falls anyway, into a nightmare she cannot escape. Because, you see, it's not a nightmare that she has fallen into. It's reality.
Illustrated by 7ARS, Philip S. Meckley's tale of unimaginable horror takes the reader directly into a Wodehouse world with all the trappings of the English upper crust. Meckley, a collector of ghost stories, is always looking for the perfect scare. With "Pretty," perhaps he can stop looking.

The Puppets of Low Magic by Lorraine Pinelli Brown
The late 17th/early 18th centuries marked a time of awakening, with the birth of institutions of higher learning, yet the most enlightened of that time spent their cognitive brilliance debating how many angels could fit upon the head of a pin. Satan was ubiquitous, and he was known to have appeared in many forms. He was thought forever present on the earth, a wolf amongst God's holy sheep; watching, waiting for his chance to corrupt the faithful. Temptation loomed— witchcraft was actually practiced— and good men prayed hard for deliverance from Beelzebub and his foul minions.
Rachel Mapes is a Puritan woman who, upon accident of birth, receives an IQ of 160. She has a level of understanding that would take others years of book-learning to achieve. She is able to make connections where it would seem no connection was possible. She possesses strong powers of intuition. And she has to hide her special abilities . . . or be burned at the stake.
But what if she really is a witch . . . ?

Scifaistew by Teri Santitoro
Scifaistew is a collection of scifaiku and tanka and haibun by Teri Santitoro, editor of Scifaikuest. Here's what Tyree Campbell had to say about it: " . . . I've read it, several times. It's that kind of collection. I'm . . . astonished at how good it is. A haibun titled "The Tin Man's Ax" is worth the price of admission alone. If you buy only one collection of scifaiku a year, this is the one for 2007. Seriously."

Shoggoths by David C. Kopaska-Merkel
This latest collection from the fertile dark nooks of the mind of David Kopaska-Merkel takes you on a journey chock-a-block with vivid imagery. A voyage to the moon becomes an amorous adventure with an alien. Decipher an ancient text and learn of our past...and our future. Bring a ghost back to life. And before you tend the marigolds, read "A Garden Adversus." Lavishly illustrated by Sandy DeLuca, with an introduction by Bruce Boston, "Shoggoths" may be Kopaska-Merkel's finest collection yet.

Sometimes While Dreaming by Marcie Lynn Tentchoff
In this collection of forty-eight poems (thirty-seven of them previously unpublished), Aurora Award winning poet, Marcie Lynn Tentchoff offers glimpses into different types and realms of dreams. Sometimes While Dreaming takes the reader into misty worlds of fantasy, and darker worlds of nightmare, lingering in our own waking world, but portraying it as changed and alien. The collection deals with different viewpoints, with people and creatures torn from their own realms of belief, transformed beyond their own imaginings, or simply trapped by law, spell, or inner emotion in situations outside of any human norm.
