Minnetonka Review is a national independent print literary journal. Published twice annually, we feature only the finest and most engaging fiction, poetry, creative nonfiction, and essays on craft. In each issue, we share with our readers the works of the best authors in the field and, with a cash Editor’s Prize, we help bring to light and reward deserving new talent.
We believe that all great literature is revolutionary. Great writers are fearless. They call upon us as readers to experience the unimagined. They place us in peril and make us yearn for resolution and redemption. They show us parts of the world we’d never seen, and they make us see with new eyes what has been right before us all along. Great writers are crafty and they are dangerous—they may find new paths to follow within convention, or else they twist, distort, and stretch all sense of the conventional. But no matter how eclectic, experimental, or edgy, these writers never fail the most important mandate—to seamlessly transport their readers, and to tell them a story. Minnetonka Review is dedicated to publishing work that is honest, human, compelling, dramatic, and original.

HEAVEN OR HELL... Which will prevail in the FINAL BATTLE? Long before the dawn of man, a war between heaven and hell was waged by the fallen angel known as Lucifer. Now at the fall of man, the final fight shall take place, and the battleground... is earth. A young man named Tracy Sangre awakens after a life-altering accident, only to find himself in a world at the dawn of it's end. With no memory of who he is or of the events that has transpired around him, he is forced to reconcile with these strange people who claim to be his friends and tries to piece together the fragments of his past which he has left. Together they embark on a perilous journey to fight back against the evil empire that has taken over the planet. Sacrifices will be made and lives will be lost as Tracy and his friends join in the war and struggle to triumph over the dark forces. With so much death and loss all around them, can they keep their hope and determination burning long enough to survive the war and see the end of the FEUD?
