Grimahlka and Other Fantasies is a collection of previously published tales. Fortunately, fiction is timeless. Otherwise, the Odyssey would be a title no one remembers.
The lead story explores a witch's love for a foundling and pays tribute to mothers of every ilk, including the often-maligned stepmother.
Like Grimahlka, each adventure encourages the reader to discover a hidden truth. In Marie Eau-Clare, the central character pays a price for a taste of forbidden desire. Yet, when love beckons a second time, she takes the risk again.
Gustav Pavel is also a story about risk. Scheming to avenge the death of his wife, Pavel confronts a truth that threatens to unhinge him. As for the shadowy monk in Agent of God, he makes sport of others' affection only to be exposed to the danger of self-love.
This volume of magic and phantasmagoria is best read by the flickering light of a bonfire.
