Fantastic Detectives
Edited by Kristine Kathryn Rusch<\/p>\n

Fantastic detectives come in many forms, from dogs to elves to eggs. (Yes, eggs.) And fantastic detective stories come in all mystery subgenres, from cozy to hard-boiled. (Remember. Eggs.) All of these forms and subgenres combine to create one of the most delightful additions to the Fiction River<\/em> anthology series. With stories featuring New York Times<\/em> bestseller Kevin J. Anderson\u2019s popular zombie detective Dan Shamble and USA Today<\/em> bestseller Dean Wesley Smith\u2019s most beloved character, Poker Boy, Fantastic Detectives<\/em> provides Fiction River<\/em>\u2019s most creative volume yet!<\/p>\n

Ebook available from your favorite ebookseller, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, iTunes, Kobo, and Smashwords.
Paperback available from your bookseller, Amazon and B&N.<\/p>\n

\u201cFiction River: Fantastic Detectives<\/em> is a great choice for anyone who loves it when genres are swirled together. It\u2019s nominally more heavily influenced by mystery conventions and tropes, but the science fiction and fantasy elements in it are almost as strong.\u201d \u2014Long and Short Reviews<\/em><\/p>\n
