Dive into a treasury of captivating stories! From changeling children giving up their heritage to fae inadvertently stealing dead names, you never know what the fantasy creatures around us are doing. Or who might secretly be magical, like the undine trying to hide her growing scales.These stories from Gwen Tolios might be short, but they hold the emotional weight of full novels. With each turn of the page, you'll be whisked away on a rollercoaster of emotions - from spine-tingling suspense to heartwarming moments of connection, and everything in between. While most stories are fantasy, there are also science fiction and contemporary tales as well.

From treasure-hunting contracts to the barters you make for spellwork at the night market, one has to be careful and purposeful in dealing with fae. It also behooves you to check the substitutions you use in a spell, especially if it's your first cast as a witch, and make sure every item you purchase secondhand doesn't come with a curse.Each of these fantasy short stories explores the give-and-take between the fantastical and the not, and while sometimes the outcome is positive that might not always be the case.Collecting a combination of previously published and new short stories by Gwen Tolios, this collection is a perfect escape.
