Electric Velocipede 25 is one of our strongest issues ever. After a one-issue hiatus, there are nine poems in this issue. Don’t be scared; they’re all really good. And the stories? They’re fantastic. We have magic elixirs that take you to secret parties, memory loss commando raids, witches and possessed ravens, a shoemaker who learns a secret, more secrets about composers from year’s past, a traveler who seeks out a castrati for his opera, a girl who wants to fly, and the capper of the issue: a story of gods who wreak havoc with people like a child with his toys. Top it off with Jeremy Zerfoss’ haunting cover image “Wolf Girl in the Woods” and this is an amazing issue that you won’t regret.
