WINNER OF THE 2013 WORLD FANTASY AWARD Episodes from the casebook
of a police officer in the West Midlands: A young woman needs help
in finding the buried pieces of her lover... so he can return to
waking life. Pale-faced thieves gather by a disused railway to
watch a puppet theatre of love and violence. Why do local youths
keep starting fires in the ash woods around a disused mine in the
Black Country? A series of inexplicable deaths uncover a secret
cult of machine worship. When a migrant worker disappears, the key
suspect is a boy driven mad by memories that are not his own. Among
the derelict factories and warehouses at the heart of the city, an
archaic god seeks out his willing victims. Blurring the occult
detective story with urban noir fiction, Where Furnaces Burn offers
a glimpse of the myths and terrors buried within the industrial
landscape. First published in 2012, Joel Lane’s World Fantasy
Award-winning collection is a true modern classic of weird fiction
that cemented his place as one of the most important and
distinctive British writers of the weird.
