Schlock! Webzine: Volume 18 Issue 8
THIS MONTH we begin with another instalment in the saga of the Challenger, followed as ever by the more recent developments in horror publishing. Meanwhile, the dead still live. Things are getting apocalyptic down Picklock Lane. Time travellers are given advice. A nasty face conceals a black heart. A world comes under the dominion of one man. And the waters rise.
Caglar learns more about the people of the forest. Dead fish float in apocalyptic seas. David finds a vegetable man outside his luxurious house. Three kings rise from the sea. Bovines are also on the rise. Operation Sky High reaches an all-time low. In the last of our sea borne tales, a submersible pilot encounters unexpected beings. And Lee Clark Zumpe reviews the film No One Will Save You.

My favorite stories in the issue, roughly rated by awesomeness:
SOLARIUM by Leah Erickson - Probably the best story of the issue. It handles many themes and motives, well and nuanced, making it simultaneously profound and creepy.
THE DEAD STILL LIVE HERE By Lucy Rumble - Great story, but it would perhaps feel more at home in a venue of greater lyrical sensibilities.
SOURPUSS by Keith J Davies - It amazes me to no end what makes people write stories about, and how GOOD they write them, in spite of the weird or mundane themes (this one is somehow both).
HUNGRY KINGS OF THE TIDE by Paul O’Neill - Well-written and effective.
ALL THE FISH IN THE SEA by Joseph Farley - Ooof, this one hit a bit too close to home, these are the themes I'm VERY sensitive to right now. So powerful and sad it almost ruined my day.
