For over a decade, the Bards and Sages Quarterly has been a showcase for both new and established authors to share their speculative works. The short stories presented in each issue serve as a delightful sampler of the speculative genres. Whether your preference is sword and sorcery, time-travel, space exploration, gothic horror, urban fantasy, or any of the speculative genres, you are sure to find something to love in the pages of this magazine. A sample of what is in this issue:A woman faces a violent storm, a dragon, and naysayers in an effort to catch a rare fish in Trinkets. A knight comes home from an epic quest to find himself saddled with an unexpected debt in I Will Send Diamonds. The royal torturer struggles to perform his job when his latest prisoner triggers painful memories in The Torturer's Last Confession. Special notification: Though we avoid publishing stories we deem gratuitous in nature, as a journal of speculative fiction, some stories may content dark subject matter. Some stories may contain strong or offensive language, depictions of violence, and child and animal endangerment.

Bards and Sages Quarterly (October 2023)

First launched in January 2009, The Bards and Sages Quarterly is a celebration of short speculative fiction. Each issue brings readers a vibrant collection of speculative works from both new and established writers. Our goal remains the same today as when we began: to create a showcase in which to introduce readers to amazing voices they might have otherwise missed. In This Issue:Ibba ArmancasEugen Bacon & E Don HarpeJanie BrunsonAngus CervantesKit CampbellErin ColeEvan DoranSarina DorieJon EtterR.
