As I’ve said before, O true believers, you cannot afford to miss the battling Bronze Age badass’s latest exploit. It’s got it all: slave rebellions, incest, a cyclops, poison, invading barbarian hordes, a manticore, crucifixions, a climactic gory battle, why, it would even have a kitchen sink if they were around back then! It’ll keep you on the edge of your seat and wanting more at the end. Melkart Unchained has been reviewed by Victoria Silverwolf in Tangent Online: “Although it contains a fair amount of fantasy content, the story is most notable for its convincing depiction of the remote past. The author obviously knows a great deal about the ancient world, particularly its military aspects. The work may appeal best to readers of historical fiction and war stories.” TMSOH is available either on Kindle or in paperback. I can’t recommend this anthology enough simply because it features the best darn Melkart story yet. You’ve been given the word, O true believers.

The magazine is available on Kindle and in softcover. If you have a taste for some melancholy medieval mayhem, this is just the ticket.

I had a busy summer as far as getting published goes. In Sorry, Wrong Artifact, a collector of Biblical relics with more money than sense is conned into buying the “Testament of Abraham,” only to discover to his horror his terrible, irrevocable mistake. You’ll find this and other strange tales in the latest issue of Dark Horses: The Magazine Of Weird Fiction No. 20. This is my second tale to be published in this fine magazine.

Rejoice, true believers! The long wait is over. Melkart the Mighty strides the earth again, kicking ass and taking names in his own inimitable Bronze Age badass fashion. His latest sword and sorcery adventure, Melkart And The Whore Of Babylon, is now out in Tales From The Magician’s Skull no. 11, the leading S&S fiction magazine in the world. Thrill as Melkart defends Inanna, Ishtar’s High Priestess, from the King of Babylon’s nefarious scheme to violate and murder her. To further plug this gripping yarn, I’ve taken the liberty of coloring in the absolutely spectacular illustration for the story by master draftsman Jason Edwards (see above). Available now to all discerning S&S fans at Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/Goodman-Games-Tales-Magicians-Skull/dp/1958809519/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2O3EDT8JIDZKE&keywords=tales+from+the+magician%27s+skull+11&qid=1692827080&sprefix=tales+from+the+magicia%2Caps%2C582&sr=8-1
West Of Dodge is the first anthology published by Saddlebag Dispatches, one of the few American magazines remaining devoted to Western fiction. Replete with period illustrations by such masters as Remington, the antho features short fiction by renowned Western writers such as the late Dusty Richards and my own story, The Fighting Editor, a quite short piece about a fracas in a mining camp written in a purely Twainian vein. It’s available now on Amazon either in hard copy or Kindle:
