Para Mort is the sixth Wraeththu Mythos anthology. Authors from around the world have contributed stories, exploring Storm Constantine's alluring and mysterious Wraeththu: the androgynous, enhanced race that have come to replace humanity upon earth.
Within art, love and death often walk hand in hand into the velvet night of obsession, which in turn can lead the way to murder and self-destruction. While hara strive to overcome human weaknesses that linger still within their minds and bodies, they are not immune to the ravages of desire, and its darker cousin, infatuation, which can lead the heart into dangerous territory, where the ground is unsure and monsters of jealousy, resentment, fear and insecurity lurk in the shadows.
In this collection, hara face the shadows that may hide in corners of the heart, where the purest of loves seem destined only to initiate pain and tragedy. Wraeththu possess abilities and faculties that humans never had, but they are not immune to the blight that misjudged affection can cast upon their lives. Their psychic power intensifies the tremors of yearning for a longed-for beloved, who might not be what they seem. If a pale hand beckons you into the darkness, will you follow it?
Twelve previously-unpublished short stories and novelettes of doomed love and invincible desire from Storm Constantine, Wendy Darling, Martina Bellovičová, Nerine Dorman, Amanda Kear, Fiona Lane, Maria J. Leel, Daniela Ritter and E. S. Wynn and four poems by Ben Fouracre.
