In Brave Men Run, Matthew Selznick looked at the Donner Declaration, where it was revealed that metahumans walk among us, and how that declaration affected a young man named Nathan Charters. This sequel/supplement doesn't feature Nathan at all, but is set in the same world, and looks at the impact that the Donner Declaration has on the lives of different people in the months following it.

I really enjoyed the Podiobooks version of Brave Men Run, so when Matthew Wayne Selznick was running a survey on whether to write more in the setting I voted "yes" and picked up this collection of short stories (by other authors, in his setting) off his website as well.
It's a bit of a mixed bag. A couple of the stories suffer from the curse of indie writers: amateur editing. Matt Wallace's Mexican gangbangers call each other "essay" (I think that's "ese", Matt), but the prize goes to Jared Axelr...more

I'm always eager to read another authors take on one authors work. Sometimes it works and sometimes not so much. The authors that contributed to this collection of short stories are authors that I have read and enjoy immensely. That said, not everyone of them can hit the mark set by Selznick. Mur Lafferty's "You Must Be My Lucky Star" is a good story, but it doesn't really delve in to the world of the Sovereigns like Jared Axelrod's "Can't Get There From Here" or Nathan Lowell's "Mouse Mousey"....more
Stories set in the same universe as "Brave Men Run". Good but too short; I want another novel!
Short story collection that was a bit underwhelming.

A nice little follow-up to Brave Men Run. Not exactly a sequel. More like "supplemental reading."
