The last triad of featured content from our first online issue, Mythic Delirium 0.1, has gone live.   We’re proud to present a new short story from Ken Liu, “Echoes in the Dark.” It just so happens that Ken won his second Hugo Award for short fiction this past Sunday at the World Science Fiction Convention in San Antonio, Texas.
