Three book covers at bottom: Numb, Fallen Destiny, Only Darkness Found poem above based on these blurbs The Forge Destiny speaks with ominous force. The mother of mystery voices a connection with darkness, a calling to surrender, threatens all in the forge of violence to consume the human.

Cover of A Fragile Thing with blurb by Lee Murray beside it: One of the most versatile and talented horror writers of our day, Stephanie Ellis shines again, this time with A Fragile Thing, a darkly chilling novel of madness, mind games, and manipulation. Channelling Jekyll and Hyde in Jack the Ripper’s Whitechapel, where science and spiritualism seduce the upper classes and the streets stink of nightwalkers and nightcrawlers, ambitious Isaac Bercow attempts to root out the shadowy manifestations that plague his own psyche. Blurring the lines between illusion and reality, one thing is clear, Ellis dangles our darkest fears before us with mesmerising skill.”—Lee Murray, five-time Bram Stoker Award®-winning author of Grotesque: Monster Stories
