Y'all following along with the last anthology from Rogue Blades Entertainment, right? My salute to the genre is to leave it with an emphatic definition of what the S&S Attitude is, and I hope it resounds through the ages. A few recognized writers, even members here, may be found among its authors...if you've been paying attention. rogue-blades.com/2023/07/15/nbny-news-update/ |

Jason, any details on the Glenn Cook contribution? Very cool of you Jason, and thank you! Regarding Cook's story, it is not a BLACK COMPANY tale. It is a brand new character in a brand new world. He said he did some research and wanted to explore writing something new. It is Japanese based. |

He said he did some research and wanted to explore writing something new. It is Japanese based. Excellent. Sounds promising. A new world and hero from the grandfather of Grimdark is a real boon to your anthology. But you really have a great overall list of contributors for this. Glad to see it funded quickly and Kickstarter is spotlighting it. Return of the Sword is one of my favorite anthologies, so I have high hopes for this. |
