Some of you who know me from the other board may remember that I co-run a promo blog called the Speculative Fiction Showcase together with Jessica Rydill, who hasn't yet made it over here, as far as I know (if you're here, Jessica, say hi).

So what is the Speculative Fiction Showcase? The Speculative Fiction Showcase is a blog for all things science fiction, fantasy and horror. We feature new science fiction, fantasy and horror releases (and all their subgenres) by indie and small press writers, we have interviews with speculative fiction writers, we host guest posts, we have a popular weekly link round-up and a monthly new release round-up.

Interested? Our submission info is here.

Meanwhile, here is a look at our posts from last week.

The last post was the weekly link round-up which is posted every Friday. Topics this week were Iron Fist, The Predator, Captain Marvel, the relationship of Ernie and Bert, a Goodreads scandal, the disintegration of KBoards and much more.

The new releases we featured last week are The Mourner's Cradle, a horror novel by Tommy B. Smith, Collision Course, a new novelette in my In Love and War space opera romance series (yes, I feature my own books on occasion) and The Imaginary Worlds of B.R. Kingsolver, an urban fantasy boxset by B.R. Kingsolver.
