Two sisters huddle in a cabin seeking protection from a dark force... An engineer and an anthropologist search for their lost geologist partner on a derelict expedition... A disgraced tracker investigates a desecrated shrine in a small village... These are only a few of the stories found within BOREAL: An Anthology of Taiga Horror. 22 stories intermingle the dark and lonely forests of the taiga biome with odysseys of sorrow, grief and self-reflection that skirt the boundaries of life and death. War-ravaged trees, hypnotic glades, and cold desolate mountains await you. Try not to get lost in them. Featured in this anthology are: E.M. Roy, Akis Linardos, Vincent West, Jon Gauthier, KL Massey, Nicole Lynn, J.R. Santos, Neil Williamson, Marisca Pichette, Ren Graham, J.S. Betula, Ally Wilkes, Daphne Fauber, Bryan Holm, Jonah Buck, Airic Fenn, Brian Rowe, H.V. Patterson, LB Waltz, SJ Townend, Sarah Musnicky, & Kuzma Mac.
Authors
I write supernatural, cosmic, and weird horror, and I'm particularly fascinated by Polar stories and the exploration Gothic, despite suffering from seasickness and loathing the cold! My debut novel All the White Spaces, set in the Heroic Age of Antarctic exploration, will be out in January 2022 (UK) / March 2022 (US). My short fiction has been published in Nightmare Magazine, Three Crows Magazine, and I'm also the Book Reviews Editor for Horrified Magazine, the British horror website. I live in Greenwich, London, with an anatomical human skeleton and far too many books about Polar exploration...
Airic Fenn is a child of the Rocky Mountains and spends more of their time in their own vivid imaginings than perhaps is proper (but who really cares about proper?). When they aren’t writing, you can find them making art or dabbling in one of their many hobbies, from leathercraft and bookbinding to exploring the outdoors and attending renfaires. The Dreamer and the Marked is their debut novel. Follow Airic on Readerly or their website for reviews and recs of indie books.
