The Book of Ruth

My short story "The Book of Ruth" is now published in TTA Press' Black Static.



It's a magazine I've always admired even back in the days of its previous incarnation The Third Alternative, and I'm thrilled to be a part of this issue.

Plus all the usual features, including columns by Christopher Fowler, Stephen Volk and Mike O’Driscoll; DVD reviews (and competitions) by Tony Lee; book reviews (and interview with Simon Clark) by Peter Tennant; news; stunning graphics…
