Legends of the Night

About the Book

At the heart of all legends lies a sense of wonder... the perception of awe-inspiring power... the recognition of something larger than life.

LEGENDS OF THE NIGHT spawns new myths, dreams, fables, and nightmares; all larger than life, all brimming with the power that can only be found in the merging of the legendary with the contemporary. From the frigid skies above the war-torn Europe of 1918, to shadow-haunted catacombs of futuristic Los Angeles... from the exotic, tropical jungles of the south Pacific in 1942, to medieval Scottish moors ruled by the fighting machines of H. G. Wells's dreaded Martian invaders... author STEPHEN MARK RAINEY presents a collection of tales that both embrace the power of ancient myth and celebrate the intensity of today's most vivid storytelling.
