  Daniel Lawton was a quiet, hard working man. He took a hard job with the railroad, putting in long, hot hours to lay railway tracks, all in hopes of making a future for himself and the woman he loved. Against Rebecca's wishes, Daniel took what little they'd managed to save to a poker game. Not only did he win, but he also got more than he bargained for. His winning streak would not last for long. 
  Beaten to a pulp and his winnings stolen, stumbling home to find that Rebecca had left him, Daniel resigned to continuing his job and staying away from trouble. An unexpected explosion, however, would change his way of thinking—and Daniel Lawton himself. He would find himself uncaring, unfeeling, and devoid of any empathy for his fellow man. Suddenly finding the gun he once feared as a comforting extension of his own hand, Daniel Lawton was transformed from a man who felt fear to a man who would instill fear. From a life of adversity and bad luck, a gunslinger would be born.

  New risky fiction—with no names attached. 
   
   
   
  If authors could write their sex scenes anonymously, would they be less reticent? Would they include the stuff they didn't want their mom, or the newspapers, to read? 
   
   
   
  Here are twenty-four original short pieces of fiction on the theme of sex, by twenty-four prominent authors living in Canada. Heather O'Neill, Lisa Moore, Michael Winter, Zoe Whittall, Pasha Malla, francesca ekwuyasi, Drew Hayden Taylor, Tamara Faith Berger, and Susan Swan are among these. But we won't tell you who wrote what. 
   
   
   
  The pieces are uncensored, unpredictable; they veer from graphic to subtle to surreal. There is straight sex and gay sex. There is frustrated sex. There is sex that happens entirely through text messages. Secret Sex is a book of erotic imaginings by some of Canada's most sophisticated and respected writers, working in total freedom, secretly. 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.

  In a land where kings burn, queens betray, and gods remain silent, the vipers rise. 
  The war for Nivainia is over, but peace is a lie. The fallen king’s shadows still stalk the realm—his whispers linger in cells, his monsters in nightmares, and his heirs in exile. From the black cliffs of Slyvaxia to the towering white spires of the Arden crown, old blood feuds fester into new wars. 
  Families bound by loyalty now break under vengeance. Sons inherit graves, daughters inherit blades, and traitors inherit thrones. As corpses are displayed like broken dolls and ravens carry mocking messages of slaughter, no house is safe from the unseen hand that turns brother against brother, lover against queen. 
  Yet in the dark, secrets coil. Whispers of unnatural resurrections, blood-born gifts, and powers thought lost stir once more. The question is not who will wear the crown— 
  But who will live long enough to curse it?
