When will you RISE? Available now!

RISE, by Mira Grant (me) is now available from fine bookstores and e-retailers in North America and the United Kingdom! This brilliantly hefty collection includes the following previously published stories:

Countdown
"Everglades"
San Diego 2014: The Last Stand of the California Browncoats
How Green This Land, How Blue This Sea
The Day the Dead Came to Show and Tell
Please Do Not Taunt the Octopus

It further includes the following brand new stories:

All the Pretty Little Horses
Coming to You Live

Because many of these stories take place after the original trilogy, I do not recommend RISE until you've read Feed, Deadline, and Blackout, but if you have, boy do I have some tales for you! All pieces are accompanied by a new introduction, written by me, because why would you not do that when you have your own single author short fiction collection?

RISE!

This will serve as your discussion post; expect spoilers in the comments.

RE: I'm kinda okay with 'Do not Taunt the Octopus'

I am so with you. The Monkey's end was not nearly as painful as he deserved.

It's really interesting to see Foxy in the last story

I SO want to see more, especially with how they seem to be tempering her meds. She sounds a lot like a fusion of Foxy and Elaine in several moments. (Mind you that may also be because we know she's Elaine now. But still.)

So I'm hoping for a book after Feedback, set after the trilogy with Foxy... unlikely, but I can hope.

I love Foxy, and I can't even think about her without getting teary. I'm content knowing that she's getting help, and if this is the last we hear of her I'll just write my own happy ending in my mind. The same is true for Georgia and Shaun. I'm content with how Coming To You Live wrapped up the loose ends and brought closure to their tale.

That said, should Seanan choose to write more about them all, I will EAGERLY devour every word!
