Terminus Accepted

Short Stories

“Terminus,” cowritten by and me, has been accepted for the Magic & Mechanica anthology from Ricasso Press. Here’s what the editor said about the story in his forum post:

I am very excited to add “Terminus” by Dru Pagliassotti and Jo Gerrard to the anthology. The Roman empire has expanded north, due largely in part to the wooden locomotives than span Europe. Powered by captive salamanders, controlled by elemental sorcerers, these machines are fearsome beasts to superstitious natives, almost as fierce as the dragon one encounters. A gripping and powerfully written piece, a testament to the authors’ writing ability since this 7,100-word story flew by.

We wrote “Terminus” specifically for this anthology.
