" If your God is everywhere, if He is always watching, why should your people make houses to go to worship Him? Faced with an all-seeing, everywhere-being God, I would think what is needed is a place to hide. "

Fade To Black
Fade to Black Francis Knight
From a British debut fantasy author comes this highly original trilogy drenched in atmosphere and guaranteed to grip readers to the core. A must-read tale of corruption and dark magic, set in the vertigo-inspiring city of Mahala.
Mahala: a city built in the dark depths of a valley. A city built up in layers, not across - where streets are built upon streets, buildings balance precariously upon buildings. A city that the Ministry rules from its lofty perch at the sunlit summit & where the forsaken lurk in the shadowy depths of the Pit.
Angelfall
Angelfall (Penryn and the End of Days Book One) Susan Ee

What AntiSF does
In a nutshell, AntipodeanSF brings the 'other' briefly, and sometimes horribly, into view (as most good SF does).
AntipodeanSF is devoted to the online publication of short-short science/speculative fiction stories (and occasionally other shorter material within that genre).
AntipodeanSF online is archived by the National Library of Australia, and you are able to view past issues by visiting the library on the Internet. Visit the PANDORA archive section.
An epic new novel about one of Western civilisation's most traumatic events - the Fall of Constantinople...
To the Greeks who love it, it is Constantinople. To the Turks who covet it, the Red Apple. Safe behind its magnificent walls, the city was once the heart of the vast Byzantine empire.
1453. The empire has shrunk to what lies within those now-crumbling walls. A relic. Yet for one man, Constantinople is the stepping stone to destiny.
Mehmet is twenty when he is annointed Sultan. Now, seeking Allah's will and Man's glory, he brings an army of one hundred thousand, outnumbering the defenders ten to one.
