Four short stories where things are rarely what they seem. Each story has a different a fable set in the land of the lotus eaters (Genesis), the investigation of a mysterious death (Fade), tragedy in a forest (Requiem) and the sadness of a decaying mind (The Old Man).
Each is written in a poetic style that enhances the mood of the story. These are stories meant to enthral and entertain while making you think - and feel.
(From the author of the hot-listed science fiction novella Frankensteel.)
