NIGHTMARE FICTION FROM THE RAGGED EDGES OF REALITY

A sinister ice sculpture that towers a hundred feet high

The secret of the ‘man’ suffering from The Condition

A strange girl who welcomes you to her very unusual home

An insane, otherworldly cure for a lingering death

Meet all these horrific treasures and many more in the 52 stories waiting between the covers of Tales From The Rain.

This book brings back into print the collections Songs From Spider Street and Brightest Black, both of which have been unavailable for almost a decade.

It also includes The Monochrome Mandarin, a previously unpublished collection from the same period, alongside a selection of ‘lost’ early tales.
