  • About This Novel

    Playing for Keeps was delivered via podcast in audio and PDF form and will be available in print from Swarm Press August 25. It tells the story of Keepsie Branson, a bar owner in the shining metropolis of Seventh City: birthplace of super powers. Keepsie and her friends live among egotistical heroes and manipulative villains, and manage to fall directly in the middle as people with powers, but who just aren't strong enough to make a difference. Or that's what they've been told. As the city begins to melt down, it's hard to tell who are the good guys and who are the bad.

Chapter One Leaked!

I sent a copy of Chapter One of Playing for Keeps to a couple of my favorite podcasts, and the hosts were kind enough to put it in their feed. If you’re here from Escape Pod or Comics Radar, welcome! I hope you like what you heard! If you haven’t checked out those sites to get the chapter yet, what are you waiting for?

Keepsie's Bar(Oh. You’re waiting for another awesome twitter icon from Jared Axlerod? OK.)

    I just updated my iPod with this one episode just so I could listen to it straight away when I was going out to get KFC.

    The first chapter was awesome! It’s so great to have another Mur novel with a Mur-style perspective on a world we thought we knew. So, when can we order one of those beer glasses?!

    Great way to start the podast, Mur! This is why you are the Dark Mistress… and why we are unworthy to bask in your glory.
