Strindberg's Ghost Sonata and Other Uncollected Tales

Tanith Lee wrote hundreds of short stories in her lifetime, many of which appeared only in small press magazines and anthologies, and other rare publications. A great many of these pieces have remained uncollected, unseen by a wider readership. Strindberg's Ghost Sonata and Other Uncollected Tales is the first of three anthologies to be published by Immanion Press that will showcase a wide selection of these sought-after tales.

From the horror fantasy of 'Persian Eyes' set in ancient Rome, via the fantastical fairy-tale realm of 'Among the Leaves So Green', through the frozen landscape of 'Cold Spell' and into the doomed city of 'The Woman', this collection spans the genres of horror and fantasy, showcasing Tanith Lee's ability to conjure wondrous, vivid and mysterious worlds. The book includes a story that has never been published before - 'Iron City', which was written in 1987 - as well as two tales set in Tanith's Flat Earth mythos; 'The Pain of Glass' and 'The Origin of Snow', the latter of which only ever appeared briefly on the author's now defunct web site.

This collection presents a jewel casket of twenty stories, and even to the most avid fan of Tanith Lee will contain gems they've not read before.

Contents:

Strindberg's Ghost Sonata, Among the Leaves so Green, Beauty is the Beast, Ceres Passing, Cold Spell, Elvenbrood, Felidis, Goldenhair, Herowhine, In the Balance, Iron City, Last Drink Bird Head, The Origin of Snow, The Pain of Glass, Persian Eyes, Question a Stone, The Three Brides of Hamid-Dar, A Tower of Arkrondurl, Two Lions, a Witch and the War-Robe, The Woman
