Welcome to Raven and Other Stories, a collection that promises to transport you to extraordinary, unsettling, slightly deranged realms where logic takes a tea break and reality is a parallel universe where nothing makes sense.
These stories explore the human condition, the supernatural, and the blurred boundaries between reality and fantasy in this darkly whimsical, surreal, and occasionally profound collection. These stories are imbued with seasonal themes and familiar faces, yet each stands alone in its unique narrative.
Prepare to meet old characters navigating the complexities of life and death, from Death and War grappling with their existence to Pascale Hervé engaging in captivating conversations. Witness Sinistré reconnecting with an old friend, a Persian cat who isn’t everything he appears to be and a black chicken destined for Christmas lunch. These stories exist in a world where the supernatural intertwines with science fiction and Gothic horror. The final story, Do Not Disturb, emerges from the depths of a vivid dream, hinting at the mysterious workings of the subconscious—a place the author dares not explore too deeply.
As you delve into this collection, expect to be intrigued, unsettled, and thoroughly entertained. Each story is a doorway to another world, waiting for you to step through and discover what lies beyond. Meticulous research and gripping storytelling ensure these tales will linger long after the final page, leaving you with chilling revelations and unanswered questions, assuming you asked them in the first place, of course.
Enjoy the journey.
