QUALIA NOUS adds tales by Chambers, Kelley
Two more stories have been added to QUALIA NOUS, the upcoming sci-fi/horror anthology from Written Backwards. Editor Michael Bailey has announced that “The Price of Faces” by James Chambers and “The Effigies of Tamber Square” by Jon Michael Kelley are the two newest entrants into the table of contents.
Chambers, who hails from New York, is the author of THE ENGINES OF SACRIFICE (Dark Regions Press), a collection of four cosmic horror novellas that Publisher’s Weekly called “chillingly evocative”. Earlier this year, Dark Quest Books published his urban fantasy novella, THREE CHORDS OF CHAOS.
Kelley is the author of the novel, SERAPHIM (Evil Jester Press). He has also contributed to such anthologies as CHIRAL MAD (“The Persistence of Vision”), CHIRAL MAD 2 (“The Tended Field of Eido Yamata”), and MISERIA’S CHORALE (“The Catacomb Enigma”). He lives in a gold-mining town in the mountains of Colorado.
