Strange Reflections

Description

Naxianpheria is a Demon of a different sort, and Mages, or, that is, a limited number of Mages are her bane. Yet she has ways of coping with them in a world ignorant of science. ~ In a house filled with light there dwells a dark terror, much to the dismay of the one who perhaps happens to be the last living relative of the former owner. Crossing a moor at night can be quite deadly, for should the Wild Hunt come riding by . . . well, best not be out, then. ~ Far within the deep dark woods there sits a tower with no doors. Take care, should you stumble across it. ~ There comes a time in every dead man’s repose when enough is quite enough. But there are ways of getting even. ~ It is incumbent upon those casting spells simply to get them right, else the consequences, no matter how pleasurable, can be quite fatal. ~ Those stories and more lie within this book, rather like pools of strange reflections. ~ Dennis L. McKiernan has long enchanted fans and critics alike with his tales of Mithgar and Faery and his Caverns of Socrates. Yet McKiernan is also the author of a number of shorter stories, most of which appeared in various anthologies. This collection finally gathers them together in one place for your enjoyment.
