Dreams in Shadow — Seventeen Stories All Told

"I see that his Lordship is pressed with the responsibilities of governing and that melancholy lies heavy on his shoulders. There is nothing like a good story to release this pressure…" This first fiction collection from Monumental Works Group features seventeen tales of bright foreboding and dark wonder, shaped by nine authors on the leading edge of the next wave of fantasy and speculative fiction. From visions of the present day twisted through a mirror’s edge of evil and uncertainty, to the far-flung reaches of epic-fantasy realms that live worlds away from our own, Dreams in Shadow offers up a wealth of innovative tales and exhilarating excerpts to challenge the imagination.
