Dos nuevas novelas cortas de Tor.com ya a la venta

Esta semana Tor.com ha puesto a la venta dos nuevas entregas de su colección de novelas cortas: Taste of Marrow, de Sarah Gailey, y The Twilight Pariah, de Jeffrey Ford. 

Estas son sus sinopsis:

Taste of Marrow, Sarah Gailey
Campbell finalist Sarah Gailey's hippo mayhem continues in Taste of Marrow, the sequel to rollicking adventure River of Teeth. 
A few months ago, Winslow Houndstooth put together the damnedest crew of outlaws, assassins, cons, and saboteurs on either side of the Harriet for a history-changing caper. Together they conspired to blow the dam that choked the Mississippi and funnel the hordes of feral hippos contained within downriver, to finally give America back its greatest waterway. 
Songs are sung of their exploits, many with a haunting refrain: "And not a soul escaped alive." 
In the aftermath of the Harriet catastrophe, that crew has scattered to the winds. Some hunt the missing lovers they refuse to believe have died. Others band together to protect a precious infant and a peaceful future. All of them struggle with who they've become after a long life of theft, murder, deception, and general disinterest in the strictures of the law.
The Twilight Pariah, Jeffrey Ford
Three friends go looking for treasure and find horror in Jeffrey Ford's The Twilight Pariah. 
All Maggie, Russell, and Henry wanted out of their last college vacation was to get drunk and play archaeologist in an old house in the woods outside of town. When they excavate the mansion's outhouse they find way more than they bargained for: a sealed bottle filled with a red liquid, along with the bizarre skeleton of a horned child 
Disturbing the skeleton throws each of their lives into a living hell. They feel followed wherever they go, their homes are ransacked by unknown intruders, and people they care about are brutally, horribly dismembered. The three friends awakened something, a creature that will stop at nothing to retrieve its child.
