Voda’s Atlas

illustration by Nickolej Villiger

 

Writer: Jimmy Stamp

In which we meet the cartographer Ka at a particularly low point in her life, but with a knack for talking herself out of trouble just as easily as she talked her way into it. Ka is keeping a secret from her captors, and in the Deadlands, knowledge is profit.

Voda’s Atlas is a sword & sorcery story originally published in Whetstone no.6. It’s the result of me binging Robert E. Howard’s original Conan stories and Fritz Lieber’s Fafhrd & Gray Mouser tales. Reviewers called it “a witty story with superb dialogue,” “captivating from opening to ending,” and noted its “great characterization, pacing, plot, and setting.”

I have more stories planned for Ka and the strange warrior she meets at the end of Voda’s Atlas. I hope to share them soon.
