    Summary

    In the bloody aftermath of Brother Gregor's stay at the monastery, Lucas can't avoid suspicion, nor the weight of his own guilt.

    His prayers for salvation won't bring it - but they lead him to a path that might one day find it.

    Summary

    “Penumbra (n.) a part of a shadow where the light is not wholly gone, used especially of the half-shadow cast during an eclipse.”

    Evil does not reproduce; it perfects itself. And the Lord does not halt wheels that men themselves insist on turning.

    Some would argue whether Henry pushed or István leapt. But they should note, perhaps, that God kept His silence as ever.

    This work is a large-scale István Tóth bildungsroman covering 1372–1403 and is intended as a hypothetical prequel to his main KCD narrative.

    Summary

    What’s the point?

    Eddie glances around to the other people hurrying along the sidewalk, lowers his voice until he’s muttering into the collar of his jacket. “I like sex! I want to have sex again in the future, so you’ll have to find a way to deal with it.”

    If you say so.
