A relationship becomes a horror story. An old woman watches her family disappear. A dead girl wants to keep a cat. A writer is punished for writing. And in a small village, a demon awakens after a century and a half of waiting.
The stories in The Maiden of St. Satyrus inhabit the uneasy border between fantasy and horror, where grief refuses to die, love becomes dangerous, and even the supernatural must obey its own cruel logic.
Filled with cursed families, evil demons, desperate gods, and flashes of dark humor, this collection offers eighteen strange journeys into worlds that are only slightly more frightening than our own.
