List of Stephen L. Thompson's Fantasy Stories

Fantasy Stories

Here are all of my fantasy stories. I’m using fantasy in a broad sense. Yes there’s “normal” fantasy with magic and dragons, but also supernatural stuff with ghosts and genies, as well as miscellaneous stuff of superheroes and sentient food. Most were published on my website or blog and you can read for free, but others were published on Kindle, either by themselves or as part of a collection. They are listed as the most recent publication – or reposting – at the top.

Hope you enjoy.
