If you catch a glimpse of the Faery Queen

But beware, for if you enter the world of the Fae
You may have no choice but to stay…
Walk through the doorway and into sixteen different worlds of magic and enchantment in the third volume of the anthology series: A Procession of Faeries.
Continuing the theme started with Enter the Apocalypse, TANSTAAFL Press brings you another anthology of the end of mankind as we know it. In this volume writers were asked to explore the height or burnout of a disaster. Thirty-eight international authors offer dominating warlocks, ironic phone calls, thoughtless kaiju, frozen ecology, survival mutations, misbehaving aliens, and even two disparate takes on artificial intelligence – just to name a few. Enter the Aftermath provides insights into all humanity and even some non-homosapiens that we anthropomorphize. Come inside and enjoy the darkness and humor woven by our storytellers.
Tales of mistreatment of “the other” abound in historical or religious writings from around the world and through all time. But there are also plenty of examples of people helping each other, caring for one another, learning about each other. Sometimes in big ways, sometimes in small—but they all add up.
The Golden Door is a collection of stories showing the impact on people when they’re treated as “the other,” whether they’re immigrants to a country, a group of targeted within their own country, or something else besides. The title refers to Emma Lazarus’s welcoming words inscribed on the plaque on Statue of Liberty, “I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”

On the day of the shortened sun
A battle between two kings has begun.

Until Midsummer, when they battle again
And the Holly King will once again reign…
