the release of Release the Virgins!

On sale now: Release the Virgins! From the fine folks at Fantastic Books, and edited by the mighty Michael A. Ventrella, this anthology features eighteen stories by eighteen authors, all of which have the title phrase somewhere in the story.

My own story is a Dragon Precinct tale called “The Midwinter of Our Discontent,” a locked-room murder mystery.

The other contributors include David Gerrold, Allen Steele, Jody Lynn Nye, Sharon Lee, Steve Miller, Gail Z. Martin, Lawrence Watt-Evans, Cecilia Tan, Hildy Silverman, Shariann Lewitt, Patrick Thomas, Daniel M. Kimmel, Matt Bechtel, Alex Shvartsman, Gordon Linzner, Brian Trent, and Beth W. Patterson, who put together this hilarious promotional video (with apologies to Mick Jagger & Keith Richards):

You can order the book from Amazon (print, Kindle), Barnes & Noble, or Indie Bound. Check it out, and release the doggone virgins, a’ready!
