Texts from the Shadows

by Steven C. Davis

Before ‘Sorrowthorn’. Before ‘The Bookshop between the Worlds’. Before ‘The Heart’s Cog Imperative’. Before ‘The Saelvatici’. Before all of them, were poems and short stories, attempts to create worlds, attempts to find what kind of writer I was, attempts to find the stories that I was meant to write. Attempts to find my voice. But not just short stories, poems and novellas that were written pre-novels. This contains recent works published elsewhere or unpublished, and a piece, 'Bathed', written specifically for this collection.
