Your Attention Please

It has come to my attention that the upcoming release from Rune Wright Publications will include the work of talented people from around the globe.
Due out late April, this promises to be an uproarious good time.
So
CHECK IT OUT
In Penny Dread Tales Volume One discover times and places only dreamt of in your wildest imagination: gadgets, gizmos and robots driven by aether and steam; angels, zombie soldiers and aliens walking through the Victorian age; and what would a steampunk anthology be without zeppelins, time machines and Sherlock Holmes? We've got gun-slingers, Chinese assassins and clockwork robots that can't keep their hands off each other. There are even a few dinosaurs thrown in for good measure.
