On the Verge of Madness

In the traditions of Poe and Lovecraft, these eight stories of horror and dark fantasy explore the title theme, each finding a protagonist on the verge of madness. The novella, "Victor Chaldean and the Portal" and the following story, "Murmurers" are both the first in a series of tales involving the same characters. These works also introduce the reader to "The Tales of the Fractured Realms," a dark fantasy cosmology from which Wilhite plans to offer us many stories, novellas and novels in the future.
