We’re delighted to present the  contents list for our upcoming Beyond & Within anthology: This Way Lies Madness, edited by Lee Murray and Dave Jeffery. In the tradition of Poe’s ’The Tell-tale Heart’,  This Way Lies Madness presents fictional interpretations of madness from some of the biggest names in the horror genre, a combination of commissioned authors and tales selected from an extremely popular submissions call. Featuring monstrous manifestations of trauma and guilt, paranoia and persecution, anxiety, addiction, and crippling terror, this anthology of dark tales is intended to showcase ’madness’ in horror in ways that challenge stigma and promote understanding, with each  contributor giving a unique introduction exploring their inspiration for their bone-chilling tale. Horror artist Greg Chapman provides the stunning frontispiece image and cover detail for this exciting new book.

The Flame Tree Beyond and Within short story collections bring together tales of myth and imagination by modern and contemporary writers, carefully selected by anthologists, and sometimes featuring short stories from a single author. Overall, the series presents a wide range of diverse and inclusive voices with myth, folkloric-inflected short fiction, and an emphasis on the supernatural, science fiction, the mysterious and the speculative. The books themselves are gorgeous, with foiled covers, printed edges and published only in hardcover editions, offering a lifetime of reading pleasure.
