Edison City Index
Hello there! Welcome to the home of the Edison City stories, also known as all of my superhero stories set in a universe where a metropolis (not that one) exists around where Baltimore does in our world, and where superheroes live. All serials, once set up, will have their own index page. Stories behind the paywall are marked: everything else is free to read.
To receive all stories in the Edison City universe, subscribe here, and make sure the Tales of Edison City tab is switched on. That’s all there is; have fun and enjoy reading!
Anthologies:
The Lights of Edison City (available on Amazon)
In Edison City, Captain Happily Married, Super Soccer Mom, their daughter Meg Atomic, and the rest of their heroic friends fight the never-ending battle against the forces of evil, which in this town include everything from the Owl Bandit taking over the subway line downtown to a romance with the Malevolent Med-Student to the Antichrist trying to rewrite history aboard the HMS Titanic. Anything and everything is a possibility here, including flying sharks. Especially the sharks.
