"Abby and Lilah are a couple drifting apart. Jeff is a flaming star. Soe is a perpetually late college student and the goddess next door. Casimir is a man with a past, and Abe is his future, maybe everyone's future. Otis is a grief-stricken robot on a road to enlightenment. Groob is fun-loving and the salt of the earth. Some are slowly making their way to each other, but some are breaking apart."--Publisher provided description.
When the Prime Minister announces a new rail line in Ismyre, there are protests: from the wizards, who are concerned about the country's magic, from the naturalists, who fear the damage to the soil, plants, and animals, and from the Sisters of Our Lady Who Slumbers Under the Earth, who would prefer their giant serpent deity to rest peacefully. As the railway proceeds, the worries of the wizards and the naturalists come to pass . . . and the earth has begun to shake. . . . A new book in the creative, fantastical Ismyre series drawn in pencil and watercolor by Bristol-based creator B. Mure. Mure continues to expand the Ismyre universe, this time with a story of industry and ecology.
"From road trips to doctors' offices to the mysterious spaces under the house, Kit Anderson's short stories explore the secrets and magic typically unseen in everyday life. A walk through the forest, a family move, a day in a normal life - Anderson's depictions of these ordinary moments transform them with a double-take, revealing the strangeness, surreality, and transformation within. With powerful and personal emotional writing and art, thoughtfully combining magic and life as we all know it - these stories establish Kit Anderson as a presence in short comics-format fiction."--Amazon.
