Eurydice

by Maggie Carroll

Die enough times, and the sanest man on Earth will crack his nut.

There are a lot of ways to die, and Eurydice has first-hand experience with them all. In her never-ending cycle of deaths, she has never tried to find a way out. Until now. But adventuring through hell has its own problems, not the least of which is her erstwhile soulmate, who is really to blame for the whole situation.

A darker twist on the classic myth, EURYDICE tells the tale of a woman pushed beyond her limits and her epic quest to change her fate.

This story received an honourable mention in the second quarterly Writers of the Future contest in 2013.
