Chicago, Illinois publishing house DMR Books will release the second volume in their Fantasy/Horror anthology series, Swords Of Steel II, on February 27th in paperback form.
The Swordsmen of Steel return! Attacking once more now with twice as much strength, the most epic practitioners of the heavy metal arts fill another volume with tales of terror and heroic adventure. Swords of Steel II features stories by such artists as E.C. Hellwell (Manilla Road), Byron Roberts (Bal-Sagoth), Mike Scalzi (Slough Feg) and Howie Bentley (Cauldron Born). A total of eight stories (each accompanied by an illustration) are contained herein, as well as two poems and an essay by David C. Smith (author of the Red Sonja and Oron novels). Don’t read this book unless you have nerves of STEEL!
Swords Of Steel II will be available for purchase beginning February 27th on the DMR Books webshop. DMR Books will host an official release party on the same date at Bucket O' Blood Books and Records in Chicago, Illinois. Check here for more info and updates on the event.
