Editor's Note:
Mielen salaperäisimmät ja synkimmät piirteet ovat aina kiehtoneet ihmisiä. Goottilaisia tarinoita on julkaistu 1700-luvulta alkaen, ja niistä löytyvät myös kauhukirjallisuuden juuret. Nykyisin gotiikan kuvastolla on merkittävä osa kirjallisuudessa ja populaarikulttuurissa.Varjojen lumo kokoaa ensimmäistä kertaa yhteen suomalaisten kirjoittajien goottinovelleja. Antologia sisältää 12 aiemmin julkaisematonta tarinaa, joissa suku on pahin ja vanhojen, hämyisten talojen kellareihin sekä ullakoille on kätketty synkkiä salaisuuksia. Novelleissa liikutaan eri maissa ja aikakausissa, ja ihmisten keskuudessa vaanii yliluonnollisia olentoja. Keskeisiksi hahmoiksi nousevat myös jylhät, rappeutuneet rakennukset, kuten linnat, kartanot, sairaalat ja maatilat.Luvassa on tummia sävyjä ja jännittäviä mysteerejä - kauhulla ja romantiikalla maustettuna.Jos jotain kirjoitatte, kirjoittakaa rakkaudesta. - Milka Hakkarainen: ReaktorirakkauttaAntologian on toimittanut Katri Alatalo, ja se sisältää seuraavat novellit:Marko Järvinen: Talo nummien keskelläHenna Sinisalo: Salaisuus vahassaSamu Kaarna: Luutnantti Mielfeldin viimeinen matkaMinerva Piha: Toiset kädetInkeri Kontro: Neiti Fridenstenin päiväkirjaM.
