Description
The shifting shadows of the spaces in between; monsters of the mind and terrors of the soul -- dark fiction in the classic Gothic style has a modern counterpart in B.E. Scully, an author who "takes the darkness of the human soul, rips it from the hiding places deep within us, and forces us to look the beast in the face" (Horror Novel Reviews). Scully's debut novel, Verland: The Transformation, has been called a "meditation upon mortality: a thinking reader's vampire novel" (Forward Clarion Reviews). Famous Monsters of Filmland claims that Verland "has taken its place alongside such modern vampire classics as Salem's Lot... and also alongside the granddaddy of them all, Dracula. It is that good."
Taste the dark and mysterious mind of B.E. Scully in this sampler collection that includes four previously published stories plus a chapter of Scully's critically acclaimed debut novel. Featured stories include "Polar Night," a journey into the Finnish Lapland that leads one would-be rock star to unimagined glory -- at an unthinkable cost; "The Mirror Tells a Different Tale," a noir mystery about a murder, a police line-up, and a detective with a very unusual crime-solving method; "Who Is Like God?", a tale about the strange things that have been happening in the Exclusion Zone, where nothing (supposedly) goes in, and nothing (should) come out; "Castles of Stone, Castles of Air," a haunting look at the consequences of chasing castles that may or may not exist -- and the even greater consequences of not chasing them; plus an excerpt from Verland: The Transformation.
