In this anthology of original speculative fiction from Air and Nothingness Press, Eric A. Clayton contributes an intergenerational story of loss, rebellion and discovery entitled “The Canticle of the Broken Tusk.”

From the publisher: What happens [just before] at [just after] the moment when individuals, or a society, loses the last of a critical resource, be that food, trees, oil, dragons, breathable air, or the intangibles – love, happiness, or time? The twelve authors of We Are All Thieves of Somebody’s Future explore those possibilities.
