Wild State

WILD STATE, a short story collection from Matthew Atkinson, is a doorway to a world of unhinged feral lunacy. Atkinson staples Ben Gemmell ("e;Lox in the Capital,"e; "e;Monks Among the Cherry Blossoms"e;), Gabe Gomez ("e;Aeneous Orb,"e; "e;Wild State"e;), and Radenna of Armattia ("e;A Bull Among Babies"e;) return for some breakfast, basketball, kung fu, and beatings galore. From there we just have insanity, whether realistic ("e;Ink Quell"e;), fantastical ("e;Shards"e;), or something in between ("e;Matte Finish"e;). The oddballs in dating-sim "e;Wingsister"e; and roguelite "e;The Cataphract"e; might be the most well-adjusted of the whole lot! Even in an age of empires it's every man and woman for themselves. To survive it, you have to enter it: the WILD STATE. For clarity, this collection includes these stories: 1. "e;Lox in the Capital"e;2. "e;Monks Among the Cherry Blossoms"e;3. "e;Ink Quell"e;4. "e;Wingsister"e;5.
