Black Denim Lit #4

Black Denim Lit is a monthly journal of fiction available on the web and on all eReaders. The May, 2014 issue edited by Christopher T Garry features seven new author short stories. All the authors expand significantly on their print work, creating narratives that are variously dark, cynical, inspiring, disturbing, longing and irreverent. Includes: •The Avatar Self by Susan E Sage (A woman journeys from her broken body to a new self not knowing what she will find.) •Boomtown Guide for the Perplexed by Michael Reilly (Charlie is not sure about his free spirited neighbor) •Bingo by Lela De La Garza (High stakes alien bingo game.) Plus, •Merrows by Alan Bray •Crucible Invictus by Konstantine Paradias •Run by Dave Morehouse •Snake Oil Rights by Ken Poyner. Don't miss: synthetic humanoids expire, but when? A clock that can't be started without consequences? Escape when drugs are about to kill you? The difference between a hero and a villain if you discard vanity?
