“Needlepoint” is the first story of mine to appear in Interzone. I’ve been included with some fantastic company- Ken Liu, Debbie U
rbanski, Lavie Tidhar, CW Johnson and Karl Bunker. The cover art is ‘The Priestess’, one of a Tarot inspired series by Ben Baldwin, and interior illustrations are by Richard Wagner, Mark Pexton, and Warwick Fraser-Coombe. All the usual features are present: Ansible Link by David Langford (news and obits); Mutant Popcorn by Nick Lowe (film reviews); Laser Fodder by Tony Lee (DVD/Blu-ray reviews); book reviews by Jim Steel and the team, including an interview with David Brin.
The art work for “Needlepoint” is by Martin Hanforth.
The new issue of Albedo One will also be out soon and contain my story, “Fish Skins”, with a dreamy illustration by Anastasia Alexandrin.
Wonderful story – I loved it! I yelled at one point with shock and horror and now my partner will just HAVE to read it (I wouldn’t explain my outburst other than to say ‘read this story’). Brilliant ending…
