ILL MET BY DARKNESS comprises four original
chilling tales (all novelettes/novellas) written especially for this volume.
“Snicker-Snack”
is a darkly disturbing study of art, monsters and guilt... beware the
jabberwock, ‘the claws that catch’.
“Down to
a Sunless Sea” features a weird Cretan objet d’art, an archaeological
find, a legendary queen and a fiend of the Ancient World.
“The Hell Wain” takes us to
a sleepy Lancashire village on Guy Fawkes Night, and introduces the horrific
tradition of ‘The Bonfire Boys’.
“Spirit
of the Season” explores the idea of old Christmas, strange ritual,
ancient powers and age-old winter terrors.
Stoke up the fire, pour yourself a brandy or whiskey, turn on the lamp
(to chase away the shadows), settle down in the flickering light, open up this
darkly delightful tome and invite the fictional terrors in... but do make sure
that all the doors and windows are safely and very securely... locked!
Artist Paul Lowe provides the rather wonderful wrap jacket painting.
