Books - Into The Dark


Into The Dark

by Patrice Sarath
POLESTARS 9

A series of single author collections by outstanding writers. The Polestar, or North Star, is defined as the brightest star in Ursa Minor; since every author chosen for this series is a star in their own right, Polestars provides the ideal banner under which to unite such exceptional works.

Patrice Sarath is an award-winning filmmaker and author living in Austin, Texas. Her novels include The Gordath Wood series (Gordath Wood, Red Gold Bridge, and The Crow God’s Girl), The Tales of Port Saint Frey (The Sisters Mederos and Fog Season), and The Unexpected Miss Bennet, a standalone sequel to Pride & Prejudice.

This, her debut collection, gathers her finest short fiction from the past two decades and more, adding a brand new story for good measure (which is currently being adapted into a film).

After being blown away by her story “Theo Ballinchard and the Oranges of Possibility” – a standout tale amongst more than 400 submissions for ParSec magazine, I didn't hesitate in asking Patrice to be a part of the Polestars series.

Into the Dark features stories set in the same milieu as the author’s Tales of Port Saint Frey novels (Angry Robot) alongside contemporary fantasies, deep space skulduggery and much much more; this collection is perfect for anyone who relishes great stories well told.

“What distinguishes all these stories is Patrice’s ability to create complex and believable characters… a rare gift.” – Martin Owton from his Introduction.
