Come, be guided through the coastline of imagination to where the lighthouse awaits.

A wonderful and unique collection of lighthouse themed short stories featuring such luminaries as Damian Murphy, C.A. Yates, Tom Johnstone, and yours truly.

There's a bit bit of horror, a bit of weird, a bit of humour, a bit of romance, a video game, a murder or two, 70s British sci-fi, monsters... a little bit of everything really. And, it's all wrapped up in an attractive book, printed on nice heavy paper and filled with gorgeous lighthouse photography taken by the anthology's editor, Sophie Essex.

Disclaimer: not only do I have a story in this anthology, but my partner edited it. How's that for a double whammy?!

Regardless of the above disclaimer, this anthology was edited blind with the author's details removed from the submission process, and what has resulted is a great anthology of stories featuring lighthouses in all their various shapes and guises. I won't pick out personal favourites as that wouldn't be appropriate, however this is a beautifully produced book (with a photographic version containing lighthouse photographs as a special edition), and each of the stories is worth your time.
