There’s a brand new treat for Wild Cards fans over at Tor.com.

“Hearts of Stone” is a terrific new novelette from Emma Newman.   It marks the return of Stonemaiden, the Cornish ace first introduced in KNAVES OVER QUEENS.   That was her origin story.   She also appeared, in a supporting role, in THREE KINGS, but that was decades later.   Emma’s new story is more of a follow-up to her debut, dramatizing her introduction to the Order of the Silver Helix.

Hearts of Stone

Stonemaiden is a great new addition to the Wild Cards universe, and “Heart of Stone” is a wonderful story.

Check it out.   It’s FREE.
