"Tenebrae" consists of eight stories, set in what the authors have decided to call "gloomy genre." This genre is to be a mix between fantasy and terror that flirts with both but does not become either in particular. Stories in the anthology are the most varied, with different themes but well connected by a common feeling: fear.
Every story, play with this feeling and its variables in an exemplary manner, doing that after the end of each story (if you're a fan of this type of literature) you have left a good impression.
The first story, entitled "Snack of the Gods" is written by Fran J. Franco, and tells us through his characters a story about food a bit special and seasoned with plenty of black humor.
I still "Absinthe" of Olmedo Juan Diaz, a story that illustrate the bohemian life of certain artists, warns us the danger of mixing foreign substances experiences paranormal.
Thirdly we "La Ganga" , a story with Lovecraftian style that we will make the hairs stand on end to the myths of Cthulu move to an environment as common as the current economic crisis. Without doubt one of my favorites from the anthology, brilliantly written by Juande Garduño.
"The Flight" of Manuel Mije , is ranked fourth in the anthology with a story where the distress is the dominant factor, and we will witness the fall of a father haunted by former family and personal demons.
presents "The Sleepless" , a story (fifth) in which the characters will be tested by such apocalyptic circumstances surrounding it and will have to choose whether to abide by their human instincts or the logic. Their decisions will write the destiny of the human race.
For the sixth story, "Old Silver" of Miguel Cisneros Perales is a story set in the more centrally Sevilla that presents a twist on the characters that inhabit it. And behind every person, there is a story worth telling, and sometimes even revive.
"The gaunt noctívago" of Alejandro Castroguer (author of "War of the Double Death") is a story in which reality and fiction are blended to tell a passage from the life of writer Howard Philip Lovecraft perspective as disturbed as the stories of the writer.
Finally "Tiger Hunter" of Ernesto Fernandez, is a masterful story brings logic to ghostly apparitions. Its protagonist Dante Malvasombra will delight readers of this story set in the future really credible.
eight stories in order very well built and not disappoint anyone.
Ah, I forgot, the cover is made by the Nogales friend, an artist like the top of a pine tree that you see jobs in your blog "QQ-Project " . Take a look because it's worth.
