Dark Fantasy Short Stories

To Charles Fort, with Love is award-winning fantasist Caitlín R. Kiernan’s third collection of short fiction, a haunting parade of the terrible things which may lie beyond the boundaries of science, the minds which may exist beyond psychology, and the forbidden places which will never be located in any orthodox globe. A deceptively even dozen, this collection includes Kiernan’s celebrated stories “Onion” and “Andromeda Among the Stones”, as well as a number of more obscure pieces.

This short story collection by J. Reder White is an ecclectic patchwork of plots and characters and ideas, some worked out while waking and pondering, others slipped into his mind while sleeping. Some come from a dark place, but most sparkle in that darkness. If they amuse you, then they have done something good. If they make you think, then they have started to work their magic. If they touch you, well, then I have little to do with that, do I?
