Sumer Is Icumen In Welcome to the fifth anniversary edition of Schlock Webzine, celebrating half a decade as purveyors of the finest online schlock fantasy, science fiction and horror. This week we have six new stories, all from established Schlock contributors, plus the latest instalments of the current serials, The Rocking Dead by Joseph Rubas, 20, 000 Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne, and John Buchan's creepy classic Witchwood.

Zahid Zaman has a story of Lynchean surrealism in Waking From A Dream, while a voice speaks from beyond the grave in Joseph Patchen's Be Mine. 20, 000 Leagues under the Sea, Professor Aronnax and friends explore the wonders of the Indian Ocean, while in the Witchwood, David Semphill awakes after a night in the woods....
