The train is never short of passengers, eager to catch sight of Wastelands creatures more miraculous and terrifying than anything they could imagine. But on the train's last journey, something went horribly wrong, though no one seems to remember what exactly happened. Not even Zhang Weiwei, who has spent her life onboard and thought she knew all of the train’s secrets.Now, the train is about to embark again, with a new set of passengers. Among them are Marya Petrovna, a grieving woman with a borrowed name; Henry Grey, a disgraced naturalist looking for redemption; and Elena, a beguiling stowaway with a powerful connection to the Wastelands itself. Weiwei knows she should report Elena, but she can’t help but be drawn to her. As the girls begin a forbidden friendship, there are warning signs that the rules of the Wastelands are changing and the train might once again be imperiled.

Author DAVID R. SLAYTON returns to Vox Vomitus with his newest fantasy, ROGUE COMMUNITY COLLEGE, the first installment in the LIBERTY HOUSE series, which draws from his earlier amazing Adam Binder Series. “David R. Slayton is a master of tightly plotted, can’t-stop-reading fantasy.” — “Barbara Ann Wright, award-winning, Lambda-nominated author” “David’s stories are at once relatable and otherworldly. Allowing an exploration of self and circumstance with the distance of imagination.” — “Chris and Bronwyn, Thirsty on Toon podcast” “Fun, witty, at times dark, but always hopeful, David’s writing opens the door to a world where LGBTQ+ characters get to be the heroes who will need to overcome family trauma if they’re going to save the world.” — “James Persichetti, author of A Tale of Two Knights” “Rough and tumble urban fantasy honed with eldritch grace.” — “S. W. Sondheimer “ About ROGUE COMMUNITY COLLEGE: Isaac Frost is an assassin. Raised in the Graveyard of the cruel and mysterious Undertaker, he has mastered the deadly art of the knife and the skill of survival, together with scores of others just like him—young men taken from their families to become the most infamous killers throughout the realms of elves and humans. But Isaac is unique: a single drop of another’s blood can confer upon him the knowledge and power of friend and foe alike. After crossing paths with the elf queen Argent, Isaac is sent to a strange magical school for wayward practitioners in the hopes that he can learn where he—and his unusual talent—fit in the world. Isaac is charmed by the school’s chaotic nature and finds himself unexpectedly drawn to Vran, a Sea Elf haunted by secret knowledge. But Vran isn’t the only one with secrets, and Isaac’s arrival is no accident. The Undertaker has charged him with infiltrating the school for the purpose of destroying it utterly, and his future rests on completing his mission—before the Undertaker takes matters into his own hands. Two time Colorado Book Award finalist David R. Slayton (He/Him) grew up outside of Guthrie, Oklahoma, where finding fantasy novels was pretty challenging and finding fantasy novels with diverse characters was downright impossible. In 2015, David founded Trick or Read, an annual initiative to give out books along with candy to children on Halloween as well as uplift lesser-known authors or those from marginalized backgrounds. A lifelong Dungeon Master, video gamer, and sci-fi/fantasy/comic book fan, David has degrees in History and English from Metropolitan State University in Denver. He’ll happily talk your ear off about anything from Ancient Greece to Star Trek. VOX VOMITUS: Sometimes, it's not what goes right in the writing process, it's what goes horribly wrong.
