Synopsis:

RISING WONDER: Demons, Devils, & Dark Gods brings together seventeen tales from independently published authors who range from veteran USA Today Bestsellers to debut storytellers.

Within these pages you will confront evil entities across unique fantasy settings, some tragic and others heroic: Space-faring dark elves bent on galactic dominion tighten their grip on Losarys, a relic is forged from the gods of Chaos, and an initiate dreamwalker confronts a demon upon the dreamscape of Kalda.

Men will fall from grace, twisted to become demons or descend to the depths of dark godhood. Planes of reality are bridged in serious and comedic tales of classic demonology.

Cursed beings and denizen creatures of the netherworld make their appearance, flipping well-known tropes on their heads. And the God of Orvu breaks free of his prison in the depths of Tardalim in preparation for the return of his evil Master.

RISING WONDER aims to showcase diverse and unique voices in the fantasy and science fiction genres.

This book contains a short story by Tori Diederich Lundell titled Beast of Bone. An unmarked gravesite lies deep within the Black Forest of those who had been murdered during horrific times. Their spirits seek revenge on the bloodlines who caused their demise. The villagers hide enclosed in the darkness of tall towers, until a woman named Greta tries to unravel the curse’s secret.
