| Summary: | "Readers can savor seven of his stories collected into one beautiful volume, accompanied by original illustrations by Pakistani artists. While these thought-provoking tales range from slightly askew to unsettling to all-out-frightening, all are imbued with a dark magic that captivates as they unsettle. Whether readers are introduced to a city that appears out of nowhere and the very real consequences of its arrival, a haunted orphanage filled with bird cages, or a mystical story about finding peace for the victims of terrorism, these character-centered tales with engaging narrators provide an eerie and entertaining window to a whole new world of horror."--Publisher's page. |
