Synopsis

Shatter the Sun: Queer Tales of Untold Adventure is an anthology of pulp heroism in conversation with Samuel R. Delany's Nevčr˙on, Conan and Red Sonja, Imaro and Xena. It joins the shelf beside previous anthologies from editor dave ring and press Neon Hemlock, including Glitter + Ashes, Unfettered Hexes, Luminescent Machinations and, most recently, The Crawling Moon.
