in night we coax things out of hidden shapes

by David Morris

A novella in the tradition of Michael Cisco, Thomas Ligotti, Lucius Shepard, and M. John Harrison, “in night” traverses a world much like our own – but not quite. On a vast plantation, wraithlike serfs feed carnivorous trees and tend the ramshackle pens of amphibious cattle. The son of the plantation’s monstrous owner is obsessed with the bondsmens’ strange songs and ways, seeing in them a path to some great truth his privileged life is missing. But when he looks for salvation in a young boy with almost supernatural musical gifts, the Son of the Big House will find that there are limits to who we are, and to what we can become.
