A story I wrote is now for sale in print only in the Fight On! store. It is 16 pages, saddle-stitched. Ig will be taking it down on April 1 and it may never be published again, so if you want to help with the contest further or are interested in the darker recesses of my psyche, purchase now!

This arrived in the mail on Saturday, and I read it before falling asleep late that night. It was a very fun (albeit in places disturbing) read! I'd certainly be happy to read more of Cal's fiction in the future.
The style reminded me quite a bit of Jack Vance's Dying Earth stories and, even more so, Gene Wolfe's Urth of the New Sun tales.
Since I was pretty sleepy towards the end, I can't remember if the ultimate fate of Cassander was ever revealed. I assumed that he died. Was he perhaps transformed into that ape creature?

I'm glad you liked it. In the perhaps unlikely event that I ever become successful in something besides old-school gaming you now have blackmail material though.
It's dangerous for authors to say what really happened in their work but...hmmm. I'd better check the published version again before I say anything else.
