Description

Para Spectral is the fifth 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.

Hara are by nature acutely psychic, able to perceive far more beyond physical senses that humans ever could. In a haunted spot - whatever its nature, if only a lingering sense of guilt or terror from a past conflict - hara are more susceptible to witness whatever might have remained hidden to the majority of human eyes.

What ghosts might haunt a Wraeththu har? Phantoms of the dead - whether humans, hara or something else? Perhaps they perceive 'stone tape' memories of the past that have soaked into buildings, fields and forests to replay ancient events at certain times? They might face chaotic entities that cause havoc, or manifestations from etheric realms, beings that leak into earthly reality from the otherlanes. They could even experience inner hauntings, where a har harbours secrets of which he's never spoken that come to plague him. All these and more manifest in Para Spectral.

Ten previously-unpublished short stories and novelettes of the eerie and uncanny from Storm Constantine, Wendy Darling, Martina Bellovičová, Nerine Dorman, Zane Marc Gentis, Christiane Gertz, Amanda Kear, Fiona Lane, Maria J. Leel and E. S. Wynn.
