The Shadow Saint by Gareth Ryder-Hanrahan

Quotes by Gareth Ryder-Hanrahan  (?)

“Ghouls love their eldritch mysterious stairwells descending infinitely into fucking shit-and-mushroom town.”
Gareth Ryder-Hanrahan, The Gutter Prayer

“God’s shit,” says Aleena. “That’s your idea of a fucking short cut? Let’s save time by getting sodomised by magic worms?”
Gareth Ryder-Hanrahan, The Gutter Prayer

“All you have are stories, retold over and over, fading and changing with each retelling. And here is the sorry thing – few of the elves remember either, even those that were there. Memories become eclipsed by memories of memories, and the story becomes the only truth that remains. Sometimes, I think that is why we elves fade over time – we can no longer recall who we truly are, beneath all the masks and diversions, and so we become nothing more than thin veneers, easily discarded.”
Gareth Ryder-Hanrahan, The Sword Defiant
