Overview

Between Worlds Volume Two: Thirteen More Tales Where Ancient Wisdom Meets Modern Terror The boundary between legend and nightmare grows thinner with each turn of the page. Between Worlds Volume Two returns to the liminal spaces where folklore bleeds into reality, delivering thirteen new tales that will haunt your dreams and challenge your understanding of what lurks beyond the familiar world. From the mist-shrouded peaks of the Swiss Alps to the endless salt roads of north Africa, from the breathing forests of the Amazon to the singing stones of Scotland's remote islands, these stories explore the dark places where human ambition collides with forces older than memory. Journey into the unknown: Walk with a clockmaker's apprentice as he discovers that time itself can be borrowed, but every debt must eventually be paid. Follow a botanist to a Greek island where ancient beekeepers preserve consciousness in glass and honey. Stand with a Mongolian memory merchant as she becomes the living repository of a village's collective trauma. Witness the fog collectors of Chile's coast as they harvest more than moisture from the mist. Experience the terror of Arctic children transformed into living candles during the endless polar night. Each story explores the price of forbidden knowledge: What happens when painted doorways become passages to other worlds? How do trees that breathe in unison reshape those who venture too deep into their grove? Why do Portuguese fishermen cast no reflections, and what bargain maintains their prosperity? What ancient hunger sleeps beneath a Finnish village, and how do the children pay its price? Where do the ghost traders of the salt roads carry memories crystallised into precious cargo? Drawing from the rich traditions of Mongolian shamanism, Greek island mysteries, Swiss alpine folklore, Chilean coastal legends, and Finnish winter myths, these tales transform authentic cultural wisdom into contemporary horror that resonates across all boundaries. Each story stands as both a thrilling supernatural encounter and a meditation on memory, sacrifice, and the weight of inherited knowledge. More than just supernatural fiction, this collection examines: The relationship between individual identity and collective consciousness How traditional knowledge survives in a modern world The price of preserving what might be better forgotten The thin line between salvation and damnation What we lose when we try to master forces beyond our understanding Perfect for readers who crave intelligent horror with genuine cultural depth, Between Worlds Volume Two offers the same masterful blend of atmospheric storytelling and authentic folklore that made the first volume a must-read for fans of literary horror. These aren't simple ghost stories: they're explorations of humanity's eternal struggle with forces that exist just beyond the edge of understanding. Warning: Some transformations cannot be undone. Some knowledge comes at a price too terrible to pay. Some doors, once opened, can never be closed. Continue your journey into the spaces between worlds, but remember that not all who venture into the liminal spaces return unchanged.
