Alice's sense of naturalism leaves something to be desired.

It's time for some free fiction, and for the second story of the Alice and Thomas era. The year is 1954. Thomas Price is new in town, and Alice is just trying to be hospitable. Honestly, that's all she's doing at the house.

With "The Lay of the Land," we begin the slow dance between Thomas Price, Covenant researcher, and Alice Healy, too young, too untrained, and too foolhardy by half. It's going to be a long one. Best that we get started.

You can download the new story now from the InCryptid short fiction page.

InCryptid is a gateway drug to other Seanan books. I fell in love with this series, even though I hadn't really liked October Daye when I tried. Then I read the Parasite series. Now I'm devouring these short stories. So I re-tried the Amazon sample of the first Daye and (gulp) went and ordered all ten books. Thought I ought to let you know.
