Sword & Sorcery: "An earthier sort of fantasy" discussion

Skirmishers – Heroism on the History: Fantasy Battlefront.

Skirmishers is 50% historical fiction, 50% fantasy, a second volume from Perseid Press that chronicles heroism over the ages (the first being Dragon Eaters). There is enough Sword & Sorcery and melee to readily appeal to the crowd here (and several authors from this group contribute).

From ancient Turkey to modern-day Louisiana and even near-future, you'' get a dose of fighting from strange battle ronts. Hero(lines) range from teen-aged girls, peace-keepers, and gun-wielding soldiers!

Each author has their own style, from frenzied-pulpy-madness, to darkly humorous, to plain entertaining. Likewise, each time-period offers a different mythical aspect. Expect wondrous stories, very varied in style but all focused on the theme. Heroika II: Skirmishers is available now in Kindle version, and paperback soon.
