J.C. Hutchins has released the first episode of his shared-world short story anthology 7th Son: Obsidian. In addition to the first story (”Miles to Go Before I Sleep,” a hell of a leadoff by Tee Morris), Hutch finally fills us in on the real title of Code Phantom, and I’m more excited about it than ever. There is also an exclusive instrumental version of the podcast’s theme song, Celldweller’s Birthright, at the end of this first episode. Chock full o’ goodness. There’s even a couple of cliffhangers, just for old time’s sake.
This is great stuff, so subscribe now. Race ‘em and trade ‘em.
Crack dealer Podcast author J.C. Hutchins has unleashed a scavenger hunt on us in anticipation of his latest project, 7th Son: Obsidian. Fourteen beautiful propaganda posters are scattered across the Internet, and your life will never be everything it could be unless you collect each and every one of them. Not only that, but if you call the number for the National Blackout Hotline found at the bottom of each poster, you have a chance to become part of the story.
All this builds to the May 31 release of 7th Son: Obsidian, stories set during the nationwide blackout that comes near the end of Hutchins’ 7th Son trilogy. That gives you just enough time to listen to all three novels before Obsidian launches with stories by Michael Stackpole, Mur Lafferty, Tee Morris, Scott Sigler, Christiana Ellis, and many, many, many (well, nine) more.
i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear;and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)
- e.e. cummings
