The theme is "Haunted", but interestingly many authors have not gone with a supernatural theme.

We have a number of new anthology authors with this anthology, and some strong poetry from past contributors. Many of the stories are quite short, but we also have one of the longest anthology stories I've seen.

Take your time and enjoy the collection. Everyone is sure to be something that appeals to them.

Lily Gilding - Wings of Ink
There are people in this world who choose to be haunted by the demons of the past. They are the people who shackle those demons upon their body.

Lugh - The Union of Darkness and Light
Some faery tales start with a kiss; some end with a kiss. They all take place in a perfect world. Well, if you don't count the wicked step-mother and the prince-eating dragon. This is my version of a modern faery tale. There are no wicked step-mothers nor prince-eating dragons, but not everything is exactly perfect either. And it all starts with a kiss...

Rilbur Skryler - Fallen Ilaria
Ilaria fell almost instantly. The shining towers and towering ramparts of her walls proved useless, and the sinews of the great Knights of Ilarus were shattered under the demon's attack. Etral Et Ilaria must live with the consequences of that failure, though he would give so very much to give up the burden.

Stargazer - East of Midnight
Why couldn’t Chase just embrace the events that occurred between him and Xander and let that be it? Why did he have to analyze every damn thing?

Young Sage - Tell Me That You Love Me
