Thomas K. Carpenter has contributed to seven volumes of Fiction River, a themed anthology series that brings together multiple authors around a shared topic. His contributions span a range of themes — from the time travel stories in Time Streams and Time Travelers to the military-focused Valor and Last Stand to the more personal Feel the Love.
The Fiction River volumes were published between 2013 and 2020, covering a period when Carpenter was also producing his novel series at a steady pace. These anthology appearances show his ability to write to specific themes and constraints while maintaining his own voice.
