Nothin’ like a good hangin’ to bring folks together. ‘Frontier justice’ is what they called it back in the day. Brutal, maybe, but efficient. Those days are back, but with a twist.
Strangers just ain’t what they used to be.

It’s just a friendly, low stakes game of five card draw. Sure, it’s a weird place for poker, but don’t let that bother you. We don’t bet much because we don’t have much. We’re a little picky about who we let sit in, but it looks like you’ll meet the qualifications, and we need some new blood in the game. You in?

Round #2 – Meet “The Heretic” Chaiyal North, the 6′ 9″, 400 pound newly-crowned champion of the Galactic Fighting Association. Chai is the first Human competitor to capture the interspecies title in a thousand years, but as far as he’s concerned crowns don’t make kings. Chai may be sitting at the top of the GFA heap, but to truly call himself the best there’s one more fighter he must face on the field of battle – Quyth legend Korak the Cutter.

In the three years since Jack Palms went clean: no drugs, no drinking, no life, he’s added fourteen pounds of muscle, read 83 books, and played it as straight as anyone can ask him. Now, when an old friend from L.A. calls, he hits the streets of San Francisco to help a group of Czech drug buyers make one big score, a single drug deal that he hopes will set him up for life.
But when people start turning up dead, and an old nemesis on the policeforce calls, Jack finds himself with just 24 hours to track down San Francisco’s biggest drug supplier or face charges that will put him behind bars.
Only an Oscar-caliber performance will get him through this alive.

Mark your calendars! On May 14th, 2009 you will be able to get your hands on a new anthology, “Full Throttle Space Tales #3: Space Grunts,” edited by Dayton Ward. The part that really has us excited is that it contains a story by Anne Stringer and Jason McDowell.
The book is edited by Dayton Ward, best known for his Star Trek novels. He also wrote one of the stories.
Anne and Jason wrote a story called “Flashback.” You all know how good Anne’s writing is. Jason is a terrific writer, and has real war experience from his tour in Iraq. They came up with a piece about a former soldier who goes on the run for murder, and winds up in a mercenary team on a far distant colony planet. They were happy with how it turned out, and apparently so was Mr. Ward.
Anne has written many of our stories here on Variant Frequencies, and Jason wrote the Parsec Award nominated “Sacrifice.”
Here is the full list of authors and their stories in the book:
Derek Tyler Attico, “Blowback”
Robin Wayne Bailey, “Shin-Gi-Tai”
Kirsten Beyer, “Widow’s Weeds”
David Boop, “The Thing With Private Leon’s Face”
John Coffren, “Across the Endless Sea”
Jeff D. Jacques, “Rush”
Jean Johnson, “It’s Not a Game”
Alan L. Lickiss, “Granny’s Grunts”
Julie McGalliard, “98 Hill”
Nayad A. Monroe, “An Assessment of the Incident At Camp Righteous”
Scott Pearson, “Finders Keepers”
Irene Radford, “Price of Command”
Selina Rosen, “Unchained”
Bradley H. Sinor and Susan P. Sinor, “Who Stand and Wait”
Anne Stringer and Jason McDowell, “Flashback”
James Swallow, “Target Market”
Geoffrey Thorne, “Truth Metric”
Dayton Ward, “A Fresh Perspective”
Bad Dreams. Shadows on the wall. Things that go bump in the night. Something lurks in the darkness to whisper things no child should hear. To remind young minds of things no child should remember. And to feed. It waits, hungry but patient, in the blackness under the bed.

No matter how crazy the time or the schedules in life get, we make time to remember; and on April 1st, Jack and I are asking that you remember our fallen friend, Joe Murphy.
For those of you new to podcasting, you might have missed the audio wit and always-clever banter of my friend, Joe Murphy. He was (and still is) an amazing guy, his voice now part of the history of such podcasts, as Wingin’ It, Slice of SciFi, The Kick Ass Mystic Ninjas, and the award-winning The Case of the Singing Sword: A Billibub Baddings Mystery. He was taken from us too soon, and on April 1 we remember him.
Please, syndicate this podcast through your feeds, blog about Joe, tell a friend today about Joe Murphy, show your support in an avatar change, and let your subscribers know that you also remember Joe.
