One thing I want to do here is not just feature my own fiction. If you’re reading Hero Go Home, then I figure you should be interested in other good writing along the same lines. So in that vein, let me suggest Masked, an anthology edited by Lou Anders. I haven’t read it yet, but I have read one of the stories–“Where Their Worm Dieth Not,” by James Maxey–which is one of the best superhero short stories I’ve ever read.
Frankly, you won’t go wrong reading anything Maxey’s done. He’s one of the few writers who blows me away every time. I haven’t read his entire Dragon Age series, but Bitterwood is excellent (now also available for the Kindle for only $2.99), and his short story, “The Final Flight of the Blue Bee,” was the one that convinced me to download the Kindle app for the PC. So if you haven’t read his stuff yet, look him up and see what you’re missing. His blog is also linked on my blogroll at the right.
