Inspired by the work of Lord Dunsany and other classic writers, yet also exhibiting vibrant originality, the highly diverse works in this book will take you out of our frenetic contemporary era and into realms of ethereal fantasy and clutching terror. And yet, pathos and poignancy are not absent.\"\u003cbr\u003e- S. T.
