Aeryn Rudel's characters exist on the brink, dwelling in the murky liminal space between darkness and light, life and death, eternal and ephemeral. Within this flash fiction collection, Night Walk, you will encounter humanity turned feral, transcendence through depravity, and supernatural entities acting all too human. These stories don't just go bump in the night, they shriek into the void. So light a candle, crack open these pages, and traverse their lost roads.
