I just backed a Kickstarter for a new sword &planet/heroic fantasy semi-pro publication called Cirsova. The issue is already put together and according to the Kickstarter page, the authors and artist have been paid.
I really like the idea of a publication that has an emphasis on sword and planet. I’ve had an itch to read more S&P for about a month. As soon as I clear a couple of titles I’ve committed to review, I’m going to be reading a lot more of it. I’m hoping this one takes off.
Pitched in!
It’ll be nice to see this launch successfully.
Agreed. I’m hoping it become a steady market.
I’m in as well. Being a biblio-snob (>sniff<,) I just HAD to kick in for the hardcover version (because hardcover.)
Looking forward to this'un' taking off–by Klono, we NEED more Sword and Planet out there!
THANKS for the heads-up!

You’re welcome.
“Looking forward to this’un’ taking off–by Klono, we NEED more Sword and Planet out there!”
Agreed!
It’s been years since I read any S&P. I’m happy to see it’s not totally forgotten.
I’ve got an S&P series I need to get back to work on. It’s been at the back of my mind a lot lately.
Oh, and the Kickstarter has funded and is working on stretch goals.
Sounds great, thanks for the heads up.
You’re welcome.
This is a very good news.
Unfortunately, in Italy sword and planet and sword and sorcery are neglected.
I hate to hear that. Hopefully you can get some through indie publishers in other countries.
