Local Magic: An Anthology of New Writing From Antimatter Press

Local Magic: An Anthology of New Writing From Antimatter Press

Samantha Parry
0/5 ( ratings)
The project of Local Magic was inspired by the Cultural Arts Center in Columbus Ohio, which was originally built as an armory for the Civil War. A funny thought occured to me while I was chatting with Jonah on the phone and running my hand along the antique brick facade: what if those armaments stored within were not steel and wood, but an army of the reanimated dead, ready to march out for the Union. Local Magic called upon new writets to create a story that adhered to strict requirements: it must contain magic, that magic must be explained through science, and the story must take place in a real location. In these stories, zombies, unicorns, ghosts, trolls interact with us in places that actually exist: small-town America, backwoods Virginia, the Erasmus Bridge in Rotterdam. The writers have explained the purpose or existence of these magical occurences with a tounge-in-cheek acknowledgement to science.

Includes a full-length novelette by Samantha Parry.
Illustrated by Monica Marier.
