Well, the Ides of March have come. Ay, they have come, but they are not gone…

The moon is full, the god of war, Mars, is celebrated and Brutus delivered his plot against Caesar on this day. Sounds like our sort of thing. So in true Dark Fiction style we have some more stories for you…

It’s that time of year again. Love is in the air, apparently. Where love mostly is, apart from in the air, is in gift shops and supermarkets around the world. Fluffy, patchwork teddy bears are declaring their love for you; shiny balloons are asking you to be their Valentine; enormous greeting cards are flying off the shelves with endless spoutings of banal sentiments.

Happy New Year and welcome to Issue 3 of Dark Fiction Magazine. We have four fantastic stories for you this month all around the subject of Brave New Worlds to help welcome the brave new year.
