This year we honor Leap Year, that phenomenon that comes around every four years allowing us to regain lost time. We dedicate this year's LocoThology to the Leap. Join a hitch-hiking vampire, space traveling religious alien, and a brain jumping philosopher on this rollercoaster ride through fantasy, space, and time. Whether jumping from the mouth of a dragon or leaping across dimensions to an alternate earth, this year's anthology has something for everyone. Now put down the cards and quit gambling with the card shark wildlife, climb on board, and settle in for a great read.

I'm absolutely certain my mom's Marilyn Monroe. Why else would there be two pictures of her on my cave wall? My brothers keep saying, "Oh, no, no, no," but the lying jerks steal my food and kick me off the cliff every day, so there's no listening to that?

These utterances leave Abi dizzy, moments after learning the Baron holds her mother in the deepest and most foul pit. No, heads are meant to...

Convincing those in power to believe that Abi is a queen seems daunting. Then again, Abi has grown a good deal since leaving her father's cabin as a naive peasant seeking no more than the next day's comfort. Mostly she has learned that the Goddess provides and has her own way of doing things, often not timely. The details of royal recognition hardly matter. No, there is a noble marriage to arrange, a fiance's parents to coerce and an enormous Farstand army to stop from decimating her reluctant allies. We shall start with a kidnapping and get bloody in a hurry."
