A Touch Of Silence & Other Tales

Ten paths of shadows and secrets. Ten journeys into possibility. A desperate quest amongst the spires of Wevven, where ancient gods watch over a dying world…A distant future where alien biotech and living cities cover the globe …The abandoned hallways of a derelict asylum where more than dust and shadows linger…A glimpse into the black depths of the human soul where a twisted loss manifests in terrible ways…These and more await you in the unknown darkness in this collection of ten short stories.
