WINNER OF TWO WORLD FANTASY AWARDS
A magical apple tree in the mountains. A hopeless king with no people to rule. A woman who loves a god. An unsettling princess.

Darkness hides in the mundane as much as the magical, and the morals may not be what you're expecting. Enchanting and chilling in alternate turns, each story will weave a spell and draw you in deep . . .
