A Day at the Inn, A Night at the Palace and Other Stories

A Day at the Inn, A Night at the Palace, the short and fantastical fiction collection by two-time Golden Crown Literary Award winner Catherine Lundoff features engaging stories about swashbuckling female pirates, opera singers and mercenaries. Follow Shakespeare's sister, Judith, and solve the question of who really authored the plays. Consort with highwaymen (who are more than what they seem), private eyes, bards, spies and even the fey Queen of Air and Darkness. Thrilling adventures await in these ten previously uncollected stories about magic, laughter, love, loss and second chances.

''There are writers of passion and writers of wry ventures and standing among both their companies is Catherine Lundoff. Her stories offer memorable characters that I would seek out in dark alleys during desperate times because only they can save the reader from the perils ahead.'' --Steve Berman, author of Vintage: A Ghost Story

''This is a collection well worth reading. I read it through, one after another, enjoying the vivid settings and the remarkable characters, but then I found that later I went back and reread a couple, pondering over them and savouring them a second time. With incredible style, Catherine Lundoff has opened up the world to us by writing the stories that place queer characters in the limelight, and delicious, enthralling characters they are too. A Day at the Inn, a Night at the Palace deserves a place on everyone's shelf or e-reader.'' --Kate Genet for Kissed by Venus
