Masked Mosaic: Canadian Super Stories is live!

Masked Mosaic: Canadian Super StoriesToday is the official release date of the superamazing superhero / supervillain anthology MASKED MOSAIC: Canadian Super Stories.  Co-editor Claude Lalumière and I are thrilled with this incredible bundle of awesomeness. Over the coming days, Tyche Books will be posting little mini-views Claude and I crafted about every story. I have no idea what Claude wrote about each one, so this is going to be fun — almost as much fun as putting together the anthology itself.

Go. Read. You will not be sorry.
