“Kitty Busts the Feds”
“Antmusic” by Adam Ant
It’s probably just as well I wrapped up the series when I did, because I would be unable to continue writing stories featuring Kitty without also commenting on various current political issues.
CARRIE VAUGHN is the New York Times best-selling author best known for her Kitty Norville urban fantasy series. The series, about a werewolf who hosts a talk radio advice show for supernatural beings, includes fourteen novels and a collection of short stories.
Vaughn is also the author of the superhero novels in the Golden Age saga and has been a regular contributor to the Wild Cards shared-world novels edited by George R. R. Martin. In addition, Vaughn writes the Harry and Marlowe steampunk short stories featuring alien technology in an alternate nineteenth-century setting.
Vaughn received the 2018 Philip K. Dick Award for her novel Bannerless. She is also the winner of the RT Reviewer Choice Award for Best First Mystery for Kitty and the Midnight Hour and the WSFA Small Press Award for best short story for “Amaryllis.” She has a master’s degree in English literature, graduated from the Odyssey Fantasy Writing Workshop in 1998, and returned to the workshop as writer in residence in 2009. Her most recent books are The Ghosts of Sherwood and The Immortal Conquistador.
A bona fide Air-Force brat (her father served on a B-52 flight crew during the Vietnam War), Vaughn grew up all over the U.S. but managed to put down roots in the area of Boulder, Colorado, where she pursues an endlessly growing list of hobbies and enjoys the outdoors as much as she can. She is fiercely guarded by a miniature American Eskimo dog named Lily.
EMMA BULL (War for the Oaks), won the Locus Award for best first novel and has been a cult favorite ever since. She’s gone on to publish fantasy and science fiction novels and short stories and a children’s picture book. Her novel Bone Dance was a finalist for the Hugo, Nebula, and World Fantasy Awards, and received a Philip K. Dick Award Special Citation.
Bull teaches creative writing at Hamline University in Saint Paul, Minnesota. As of this writing, she’s working on Claim, a sequel to her novel Territory, which is a historical fantasy set in Arizona in 1881.
