My copy of the 2nd anthology from the Bristol Short Story Prize arrived in the post this morning. The book is well worth the cover price, containing twenty short stories - all of the entries short-listed in the this year's Bristol Short Story Prize. So congratulations to all the winners from The Tainted Archive. I'll review the book later this month but for now I wanted to share the news with Archive readers.
