An image of author Christopher J. Burke along with the covers of five books. The text says: "Burke's Lore Briefs. Five Fabulous Fantasy Anthologies. Available on Amazon and Kindle Unlimited." The five books are themed: angel/devils, vampires, humor/LitRPG, new superheroes looking to the future, old supervillains looking to wind down their careers.

They make a great duo. WHO WILL YOU SAVE? is the definitive collection of my very best short fiction, and JITTERBUG is my biggest and boldest novel. And they're published in these striking matching covers from @titanbooks.bsky.social and available from all good booksellers.
The cover of WHO WILL YOU SAVE? by Gareth L Powell. It shows a figure on an alien landscape reaching up to a figure standing on an upside down reflection of the landscape above. The cover of JITTERBUG features a stylised rocket silhouette at the centre of an orrery, with a space suited figure dangling in its wake

I always wondered if it was a big deal to writers if I mentioned that I liked their story when I reviewed anthologies. Well, now I know that it is, because it happened with me when my story “Call Anywhere” was mentioned in this review. It’s a great feeling! 😃

The problem is I had to unpublish and republish the ebook, meaning people who bought the previous one won't get an updated version. If anyone who bought the prior version wants the updated one, just message or email me and I'll send you the ePub to load into your device.
