The Astral Pages: Ghosts, Galaxies, and Magic Realism

The Astral Pages is an anthology of nine stories that resonate Magical Realism. Also includes conversational interviews with each author. Some of the stories filled with magic, others will bring out the magic in you. The authors are Reggie Oliver, Ruthie Marlenée, Steve Aylett, Jim Matthews, Eric D. Lehman, Anthony Abelaye, John Shirley, Jim Cherry, and Bill Ectric.

Bill Ectric likes magic realism, mystery, humor, science fiction, and metafiction so he combines those elements in his writing. Not usually all at once. Bill says he writes to "erase the line between mysticism and science," often citing the 16th Century alchemists' innate sense that one element could be changed into another element; finally proven in a particle accelerator in Switzerland in the late 20th Century.He likes mystery, humor, paranormal, science fiction, and metafiction so he combines those elements in his writing.
