The Girl with Raven Hair

By J P S Lindberg

Nordic Folklore goes post-apocalyptic in this 370-page fantasy anti-adventure, about the failure of parenthood, the double-edge of good intentions, and the self-determination of saved princesses.

Life can be hard for a human in a world inherited by beings who hate them.

Sometimes they're hunted and hounded through ruins and woods; their capacity for humanity so eroded that everything starts to look like hostility, and sometimes a girl never chose anything that ended up choosing her.

Sometimes hearths and harbours are shut and lost to them; they're left to pilfer and scavenge for anything to call their own, and sometimes the best thing a vagrant can dream of is to remain uncollared.

Sometimes past and present leave them behind; their sense of self seep through their fingers, and all a ruin of a human can do to try and scratch back some semblance of identity is to hitch their hopes on folk who would rather not have anything to do with them.

Sometimes a king with no kingdom, a rogue with scruples, a runaway with no runway, and an amnesiac with nostalgia, get caught in each others' orbits through no fault but their own, and someday this will be their story.
