Download or read book Prohibition Orcs written by Michael Warren Lucas and published by Tilted Windmill Press. This book was released on 2022-10-18 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I love these stories" Kristine Kathryn Rusch, Hugo- and Nebula-award winning author of The Fey ELVES WENT INTO THE WEST—TO AMERICA. GENERATIONS LATER, ORCS FOLLOWED. 1927 Detroit. Orcs fight Prohibition, avoid police, and labor hard for their children. All while doing their best to navigate the narrow human world. Men drive fancy Dodges and Cadillacs; orcs squeeze into fourth-hand Model Ts. Dwarves dominate the skilled trades; orcs push brooms. And behind everything, elves make it their life’s work to deny orcs have worth. To be an orc is to endure, but when the world tries to deny even that, an orc must act. And Uruk-Tai will do anything for his family. This long-demanded collection includes all the Prohibition Orcs tales—Spilled Mirovar, Final Gift, Drowned Mirovar, Witness November, Degreased Hopes, Woolen Torment, and the never before published A Debt of Meat. With an introduction by USA Today best-selling author Robert Jeschonek

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Book Synopsis Frozen Talons by : Michael Warren Lucas
Download or read book Frozen Talons written by Michael Warren Lucas and published by Tilted Windmill Press. This book was released on with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “ A tale so outlandish it feels real. Prohibition. Grosse Pointe elves. Automotive lords. And the orcs doing their best to make America make sense. A riotous fantasy within a fantasy. Terry Pratchett via Detroit!” --Zig Zag Claybourne, author of Afro Puffs are the Antennae of the Universe HOPE EXISTS TO BE CRUSHED The tenuous bootlegging alliance between the Tai clan and the human Sanford brought wealth to Uruk-Tai’s family. But a treacherous shadow has poisoned booze in the clan’s name. Humans have died and other humans blame Uruk, the way small men always blame orcs. But when an orcish child dies from poison draught and war erupts between clans, Uruk finds himself forced into a magic-bound partnership with a clan rival who wants him dead. As the Sun surrenders to the Longest Night, Uruk charges through the belly of 1927 Detroit to find a cowardly killer before his own family is destroyed. Is it a lone poisoner? Or have the arrogant elves decided to end their slow feud and destroy Uruk’s family? An orc endures, but endurance is not enough. By dawn, bodies frozen to the street. Perhaps Uruk’s children among them.
Book Synopsis Devotion and Corrosion by : Michael Warren Lucas
Download or read book Devotion and Corrosion written by Michael Warren Lucas and published by Tilted Windmill Press. This book was released on with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High Speed Madness, with Love at the Wheel Love. The most overloaded word in our language. Love of your mate, love of pets, of parents and children and friends, all different things. We spend our last breath sharing our love. For love, we break not just the law but ourselves. Love is pure devotion, and pure corrosion. Love propels these stories. Thrillers and fantasies, science fiction and historicals. Love chained by brain implants and little old ladies who should have been left undisturbed. Love strong enough to unravel the universe, with the knowledge to do it. Minuscule love wiggling its whiskers against your cheek. Trapped children freeing themselves through love of the incomprehensible. Love of art and family and another person, the kind of love that violates museums and gnaws Semtex. Selected from a decade of the author’s work, these eleven tales affirm the power of love—at knifepoint. “Each story is Hieronymus Bosch writing a love letter to Charlie Brown’s little red-haired girl now grown and so weary she aches.” – ZZ Claybourne
Book Synopsis Letters to ed(1) by : Michael W Lucas
Download or read book Letters to ed(1) written by Michael W Lucas and published by Tilted Windmill Press. This book was released on 2022-03-17 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You asked. He didn’t answer. The We Get Letters column of the FreeBSD Journal has been called “a tsunami of bile disguised as experience and erudition,” “a torment to the eye and a stain upon the soul,” and “the corroded battleship anchor that will drag an otherwise illustrious Journal to an ignominious demise.” If you ask people who aren’t the columnist, you’ll get a less luminous view. Perhaps even negative. We sincerely apologize. This collection of the first three years illustrates how rapidly Lucas abandoned any pretense of answering questions usefully—or, indeed, paying any attention whatsoever to his correspondents. It is unacceptable. What the editors conceived of as an innocent letters column quickly transcended bitterness to become elevated, even elegant enmity. Against everyone. Apologies are insufficient. In an attempt to keep these columns from teaching other articles bad habits, we have confined them in their own private volume. The publisher expects it to be presented as evidence at his inevitable competency hearings, as well as most of the civil suits. Next week’s suits, at least. "While we appreciate Mr Lucas' unique contributions to the Journal, we do feel his specific talents are not being fully utilized. Please buy his books, his hours, autographed photos, whatever so that he is otherwise engaged." – John Baldwin, FreeBSD Journal Editorial Board Chair

Book excerpt: ChuHao eyes staring at the animal bones, breathing gently, as if afraid to disturb something. If you look closely, you will find that his right arm has not moved at all from beginning to end, but only his wrist and five fingers. His left wrist is as flexible as a snake, soft as a bone, with five fingers flying, leading five elegant arcs on the skull and constantly converging between the eyebrows of the skull.
