SYNOPSIS: "Dr Cristian Luca has lived through it all. From power and influence to near destitution, from audiences at the Royal Palace to sleeping on building sites, from manipulating people to dependence on the kindness of hidden friends, from a successful and happy marriage to loneliness and regret, Luca is a survivor. But there is a continuing price to be paid. The Voice of the Airgathers three episodes from Luca's life. As he thinks back over his career, the people and tumultuous events he has been associated with, small tokens from this past allow him to step out of his daily concerns and observe what may really be going on - the secrets that lie behind the rapidly changing world in which he finds himself. Now available together for the first time, "The Fatal Vision"and"The Lustre of Time" were previously only published in highly limited editions."The Process of Fire"appears for the first time.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. No Jacket. This is a first UK limited edition hardback (limited to 333 copies only). Published without a dust jacket. UNREAD. SYNOPSIS: "Available in English for the first time, Per Faxneld's The Tree of Sacrifice comprises forty-four Swedish folk-Gothic tales. Each of the forty-four short tales included is beautifully illustrated by artist Mimmi Strinnholm. The book is translated by the author. Faxneld takes his inspiration from dark, folkloric narratives which have been told in his family for generations. The Tree of Sacrifice thus conveys the enchanted atmospheres of old Scandinavian folklore. In keeping with the style of traditional oral storytelling, the writing is intentionally simple and sparse, while at the same time inventive, subversive, provocative, and philosophically complex."

The stories are: *Olivia by Albert Power; *Tabula Rasa by Richard Gavin; *Scourge by Sara Wilson; *The Bearded Nun, or The Saracen's Redemption by Tom Johnstone; *A Trifling Tale by Jon Horn; *Lorelei by J. Rosina Harlow; *Shadow, Ghost or Hellequin by Nina Antonia; *The Cardinal's Ring by Reggie Oliver; *Casa Magni by Lisa Moore-Smith; *To Vathek by Dmitri Akers; *Thirteen Castles South by Rhys Hughes; *Spolia by Aleksandra Ugelstad Elnæs; *The Rescue by Jonathan Eeds; *The Sailor's Bride by Isobel Granby; *The Grotto at Crennocken by Jonathan Wood; *Mrs Poole Will Speak Wrongly, However I Do It by Kate Meyer-Currey; *Cellmates by Craig S.
