Come closer, let me tell you a tale or three. Sit nearer the firelight, and if you notice the folk in the shadows, best not garner their attention.

Beware the gifts, treasures, and promises you make along this journey. There are temptations and curses too, plenty of those. From the tricks of jinn, vengeful Ancient Mesopotamian goddesses, the Hidden People, and shadowy deals with demons & devils, many await.

In our journey through fairy tales reimagined, legends and folklore, and alternate histories, beware the uncanny folk who prey on unwary travellers.

Mind your step now, keep your senses sharp, take nothing offered, and you might evade those beings hidden just beyond the reach of the firelight.

Three Curses and Other Dark Tales offers a compelling collection of stories for those who dare to listen.
