Bøger af Joan D'Arc

ProtoH8 is killing the bees and threatening human annihilation. Far away from the apocalyptic struggle, a promised utopia springs up. The cure is in the bee venom given at the Friends of Apis sanctuary. But once you get there, you can't go home. The Kickapoo Nation of Kansas loses many members to the H8rs, a roaming band of killer humans with the disease. Wintu's father tells him to stay clear of Friends of Apis. And the H8rs, he says, are greedy Wendigo spirits coming for the casino gold. Their attacks have become deadly. Wintu must find his twin sister, Wenona, wherever she is, and take her home-wherever home is now. Mix one part mythic thriller. One part magical realism. Streak with horror! Sit around the campfire and enjoy Transsender and the Wendigo. Integrating the magic of astral projection, telepathy, and telekinesis into a dystopian setting, Transsender is an updated retelling of the Kickapoo legend of the Great Spirit and Wisaka. It also stands as a cogent reminder of the monstrous treatment of indigenous peoples and a wake-up clarion of anti-racism and anti-slavery. Approximately 340 pages.Joan d'Arc's SF / horror short stories have appeared in numerous anthologies worldwide. Her collection, Friends of Apis Radio: Fabulist Fiction Tales, has garnered multiple five-star reviews. Her fascination with Native American mythology influenced the story arc of Transsender.

In a writing style rich in aerial movement and numinous trickster guides, this short story collection from Paranoia Magazine's Joan d'Arc squeezes you between the elevator doors and yells, "Going up!" Friends of Apis Radio is a work of magical realism, macabre humor, and supernatural horror. Reviews"You may not be prepared for the repeated whomps upside the head assembled in this striking collection. Completely unpredictable shifts and turns, sudden confrontations with ever-changing new realities provide repeated mind-warps. d'Arc's charged, rapidly moving prose has a dreamlike fluidity, but these dreams have been fully enlivened by an extravagant CGI mistress.""The author is fully at ease and conversant with her worlds, and this assured touch translates to the reader. She is also adept at changing styles to suit individual stories, which is a considerable skill. If you are looking for something that is genuinely original and, at times, mind bending, then you will find plenty to enjoy in this book." "An imaginative and diverse collection of short tales. Some were quite relevant to topics of the times, others bizarrely strange with a humorous edge, or tantalizingly reminiscent but with a twist, and also some that are quite creepy." "What stands out about this volume is the satirical edge and macabre humor. One of my faves, The Mainsplain, is about two squids who live in some ocean somewhere, and who peer into their Mainsplain and Pocketsplain offering a hilarious running "roast" of Earth's horrific history."Who is Joan d'Arc?Joan d'Arc's fabulist fiction has appeared in Danse Macabre, The Wedding Cake House Anthology and Huntergatheress Journal.
