Explore the darker, mysteryious side of Warhammer Fiction with this great anthology of stories from Warhammer Horror. An arcane evil has awoken in these worlds defiled by endless war. Perhaps it was born from the madness of violence. Or else it has always existed, hiding among restless shadows with eyes half-closed. But now, it slithers and creeps into the wreckage of people’s lives, those who have already survived the unthinkable. It covets the lost, the lonely and the hopeless, pushing them down their fateful paths — a reclusive historian, searching for a ghostly ship; the crew of a ruined craft who must brave a slow, inevitable death; an old woman seeking redemption in a hostile wasteland. For these are the stories of journey taken, choices made and the power of the human spirit when dark forces come hunting. This collection features tales of the grim and uncanny by Graham McNeill, Jake Ozga, Lora Gray and more.

My coming novel will be the story behind my poetry that will tie in with my work and back up my poetic considerations with classic prose. I have watched as each poem was worded in a manner of beautiful description to the words I love to hear and was composed to the narrative and to the image of wonder and enchantment in the dress sense of beautiful fable lines and imagination. Our whole world is reflective of the dark side, and the moonlight contrasts to the days end and the going down of the sun. Lucent travels are enlightened journeys, whether in darkness or by the light of the rising sunlit dawn and morning wake. And the dreams conscious of binding and reflective thought carry on in our daily lives through the passages that are arrived at and for the light that they are seen. Stars are held in awe of distance and time and are watched as they navigate the universe for which they are known in the space that they have always been seen to highlight and mark our travels in the light and depth of our destinations that only our imagination can concur to the challenge of understanding and distinction. We awake from sleep to the clarity of light, and hopefully, the guarded truth that follows our turbulent lives in hindsight to the character bestowed in our darkest thoughts and the things that bring them to light that may raise us from the pit of demons that carry chains to hold us hostage to their disparaging afterlife, that is fired by hatred, jealousy, and envy of the time that we have left and for their own fateful eternities for which there is no return, but for the devil that drives the enormities of fact for our own judgment.
