Sinopse

"Cottam is a masterly maven of the deeply disturbing occult. His latest may well leave you with nightmares Kirkus Reviews

In the 1500s an almanac full of magic spells was put together by someone intent on bringing about The End Times. It has resurfaced and is being used indiscriminately.An unexpected lunar eclipse. A poisonous fog that cripples the capital. Statues that weep blood.

As the catalogue of calamities mount, fear and paranoia provoke rumours of terrorist attacks. But from whom?

History professor Juliet Harrington is an authority on sixteenth-century mysticism and a long-time believer in the existence of the Almanac of Forbidden Wisdom, a potent spell-book legend insists was compiled in that period by a cabal of powerful occultists. Its magic is summoned though only at disastrous cost, signalled by The Auguries. Juliet is convinced that the recent plague of disasters means someone reckless is using the book - and she has little time left to stop them.

    Granted, being murdered first thing in the morning would make anybody cranky, but when local contractor Max Wheeler meets his unnatural end, he takes it more personally than most. 
    As any perturbed ghost looking for justice would, he goes straight to the local sheriff to report the crime. That's when Hunter learns there's even more weirdness beneath the surface of his small southern town than he thought. Just when he's come to terms with the fact that he's dating a real witch, he gets a trial-by-fire introduction to his living-impaired citizen population, too. 
    Cranky ghosts, sticky-fingered vagabonds, and disappearing food keep the gossip wheel churning, but Noelle's about to lose her mind. 
    Is it really too much to ask that people stop killing each other long enough for a witch to get some work done? 
    If you love laugh-out-loud southern wit, magic, and murder, then you'll fall in love with this witchy mystery series.

Spanning a decade of writing, Still So Strange is Amanda Downum's first collection of short fiction, and includes stories originally released in Strange Horizons, Realms of Fantasy, and Weird Tales, as well as original, unpublished work.
