Fenton Wood has released a new book Hacking Galileo. The author of Pirates of the Electromagnetic Waves, says this new 80’s adventure sci-fi is “in the same vein, but bigger and badder.”

HACKING GALILEO is live! Print edition coming soon.

80's teen adventure movies reimagined as hard SF. Phone phreaking, computer hacking, espionage, aerospace, weird cosmology, and a Gen X memoir of the America that was.https://t.co/P60m8vbwOD

Sale Alert! Magic School Story Bundle

Sale Alert! Magic School Story Bundle

Including works by authors we've reviewed!

A new Story Bundle is available now featuring books from the magic school genre! Curated by Thomas K. Carpenter, this sale includes works by three authors we’ve reviewed here on Periapsis Press.

“It’s that time of year when kids across the world are returning to school from their winter breaks. While they’ll be forced to suffer through the mundane acquisition of knowledge without threat of mystical annihilation, you don’t have to, because you can spend your time reading stories about magical schools that exist in this world—and many others!”

Of particular interest are N.R. LaPoint‘s latest short story “Unintentional Horror” (featured in Fantastic Schools, Volume 6) and an updated version of a previously published novella by Morgon Newquist.

If you love magical schools, you can't miss this magical schools Story Bundle, which includes an updated version of my novella, Down the Dragon Hole! Pay what you want to support the writers and get the bundle:https://t.co/GmPvfSEtme pic.twitter.com/TFiN9m9V1I

I found the first book The Unexpected Enlightenment of Rachel Griffin a delightful tale of “fast friendships, secrets, and parallel worlds.” If you haven’t checked out this series yet, now is a great time to start!

Fans of Rachel Griffin will want to keep an eye on Lamplighter’s social media for more information!
