Michael A. Stackpole’s collected works include five volumes released between 2005 and 2013. The genres here lean toward crime fiction, fantasy, and mystery. Perchance to Dream and Other Stories (2005) was the first, followed by The Purgatory Station Omnibus in 2009. Two collections appeared in 2011: Murderous Magick and Crime Tech, which sit at the intersection of mystery and speculative fiction. Tricknomancy closed out the set in 2013.
The titles suggest a mix of magical and investigative themes, with Stackpole drawing on both his fantasy and crime fiction backgrounds. Readers interested in his shorter work and omnibus editions will find this a useful overview of what he published outside his longer novel series during this period.
