This collection of seven stories and novelettes takes readers from the dusty tombs of ancient Egypt to the media-saturated and crime-haunted America of the 1990s and beyond.

Meet a friendly neighborhood necrophile taxidermist who's about to have a very strange day; a solitary witch who learns the importance of a familiar; a pair of drifters whose complicated relationship must face an apocalyptic threat; and a dedicated veterinary assistant forced to protect the patients from the doctor as society devolves around her.

Hear a doomed villain's side of a timeless story of loss, and the memories of a trafficker of pharaonic artifacts, as recounted in the afterlife.

Read a teenager's wistful letter to the older sister whose actions and infamy both changed his life completely and separated the two of them forever.

A blend of invention and homage, these stories are both old and new- written over a time period spanning three decades- and a testament to the fact that each spark of creative energy in the world can lead to another.
