Book Description

October 1, 2009
Under the Rose edited by Dave Hutchinson is a new anthology of cutting-edge speculative fiction from some of today's brightest literary talents. From fantasy to dark fantasy and horror to science fiction and the hard-to-categorize works of the imagination that fall somewhere in-between, there is something here to appeal to the most curious reader.

This volume includes contemporary stories of the fantastic by Pauline E Dungate, Tim Lieder, William John Watkins, Mel Sterling, Jean Graham, Ken Rand, Teri Smith, Liza Granville, Ralan Conley, Stuart Jaffe, CL Russo, James Targett, Ren Holton, Donna Scott, Justin Stanchfield, Lou Anders and Chris Roberson, Ian Whates, Gaie Sebold, Jean Tschohl Quinn, Angel Arango, Ekaterina Sedia, Edwina Harvey, Sarah Totton, William R Eakin, Uncle River, and John Grant.


Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

The quality of the 27 original short stories in this fantasy anthology is wildly inconsistent, but there are a handful of real gems, including Mel Sterling's Perambulations, a horror-nuanced tale of carny Mister Strange and his enticing clockwork creations; Justin Stanchfield's A Distant Scent of Rain, which chronicles the revelatory ceremonial first contact between humankind and an alien delegate; and Sagekites' Land by Ekaterina Sedia, a poignant story about a boy's struggle to come to grips with his father's looming death and the loss of his family's homestead. Readers who get past Pauline E. Dungate's clunky Plant Hunter, Tim Lieder's self-satisfied Office Job and William John Watkins's tell-don't-show Five Hundred Vinnies—all far too weak for their cushy opening spots—will find enough good stories to make the effort worthwhile.
