Letter from the Editors

Dear Reader,

This quarter, we are pleased to present a wide variety of sensational speculative fiction:

  • Live Fast, Die Young by J.L. Shioshita -- a unique young man deals with mind-bending challenges in this genre-crossing flash.
  • A Warrior Still by Shelly Campbell -- warriors come in all shapes and sizes in this melancholy, lyrical fantasy.
  • Red Zone by Harry Pauff -- boy meets bot (or does he?) in this high-tech love story.
  • A Partial Record of the Early Life of Lys by E. Saxey -- young Lys suffers strange temporal effects and an all-too-human predator, living on a mysterious research base.
  • Ten Cents to See the Unicorn by Meredith Morgenstern -- two lovely, generous women find a new family for their beloved unicorn.

Cover Artist Ron Sanders returns with his latest art piece titled "Stress Test."

And don't forget Editors' Corner where our very own Minta Monroe presents her macabre short story, Lusca Bait, which puts a whole new, horrible spin on the concept of fishing.

We hope you enjoy these stories as much as we did!

Thanks for reading,
The Electric Spec Team
