Ether Frolics is short-listed for the 16^th annual
Danuta Gleed Literary Award, recognizing the best first
English-language collection of short fiction
by a Canadian author published in 2012

"Marlowe offers a neatly controlled yet artfully wild and original sense of the bizarre and otherworldly. A unique collection that deserves readers." - Danuta Gleed Literary Award Jury

~~ Available now as an e-book from Kobo ~~

"This collection of nine short stories is a true jaw-dropping jewel of a book..."
- Aly Grauer, Doctor Fantastique's Show of Wonders

"Marlowe's stories are detailed, quirky, with a good sense of humour,
but not without some dark, deft touches of horror..."
- Craig Pinhey, Telegraph-Journal

"Paul Marlowe has once again written a fine story, but this time he
has done it nine times over... I highly recommend Ether Frolics.
It is such fine storytelling, you will be so enthralled your tea will go cold!"
- Lee Ann Farruga, Steampunk Canada
