Fables and Fabrications

From the Arctic wastes of Norway to a fun-laden evening at the fair, Jan Edwards leads us through a world where nothing is as it seems. Shape changers and ancient spirits roam, and cats play their inscrutable parts, in stories that unsettle and disturb the reader's perceptions. Fourteen tales of mystery, myth, mirth and the macabre. Chosen from her back catalogue of folk horror and dark fantasy, these stories, leavened with a sprinkle of verse, have been collected in this reprint (first published in 2016).
