Three Tales of Want and Wonder

More about the book

What if the future life you thought was too far gone called to you in a dream, and you found out it was a real place? Are our beloved dead gone forever, or can we journey through the dark woods to go find them, and keep our promise? If you suddenly developed powers once held by your ancestors, how much would you risk to find someone else like you? Written during that remarkable 5 year period between 2018 and 2023, THREE TALES OF WANT AND WONDER is an anthology of speculative fiction, three stories strung together by unlikely connections of desire, loss, change, and possibility, and all centering - in some form - around the same small valley town. These tales are a product of their troubled times, an effort by author Jody Aberdeen to make sense of an increasingly nonsensical world through narrative, undergirded by a stubborn hope that it may all someday turn around for the better.
