The Carnelian King and Other Stories

A collection of fifteen queer fantasy short stories introducing dazzling new worlds. From a magical second-hand shop hidden between dimensions to rolling emerald hills dotted with ancient ruins, through carnivorous winter woods and across the war-torn steppes of a crumbling empire, this collection spans beloved fantasy genres from classic to cozy, action and adventure to sword and sorcery, and gothic horror to romance.
Some of these many star-crossed worlds include: A dashing knight nostalgic for the lost myth and glory of the Golden Age, and a reclusive sorcerer who is more than he seems. Gentlemen dragons, sapphic dragons, dragons as small as hummingbirds and as vast as rivers. The first installments in a new sword & sorcery series, featuring a mercenary knight who cannot be killed and a horde of witches, lich-kings, and curses. Trading tales of survival in the god-wrecked scrublands of the old west. An eldritch house hungering for fresh meat. A disgraced prophet, his flirtatious rival, and a foal whose birth foretells great changes for their land.
