Dark Spires
Dark Spires presents eleven speculative fiction stories edited by Colin Harvey, and published by Wizard’s Tower Press in November 2010.
Dark Spires is a speculative fiction anthology about Hardy Country — Wessex.
Hardy’s Wessex is the West of England, from Brunel’s industrial Bristol and Austen’s Regency Bath in the North, to the cliffs of Lyme Regis on the South coast, from the border with Cornwall in the West to the Isle of Wight in the East.
Dark Spires will take the settings that inspired Hardy but update them and add the fantastic elements of speculative fiction — fossils and monorails, sea wolves and anti-gravity.
