Strange things exist on the periphery of our existence, haunting us
from the darkness looming beyond our firelight. Black magic, weird
cults and worse things loom in the shadows. The Children of Old
Leech have been with us from time immemorial. And they love us...
Donald Miller, geologist and academic, has walked along the edge of
a chasm for most of his nearly eighty years, leading a charmed life
between endearing absent-mindedness and sanity-shattering
realization. Now, all things must converge. Donald will discover
the dark secrets along the edges, unearthing savage truths about
his wife Michelle, their adult twins, and all he knows and trusts.
For Donald is about to stumble on the secret... ...of The Croning.
From Laird Barron, Shirley Jackson Award-winning author of The
Imago Sequence and Occultation, comes The Croning, a debut novel of
cosmic horror. Skyhorse Publishing, under our Night Shade and Talos
imprints, is proud to publish a broad range of titles for readers
interested in science fiction (space opera, time travel, hard SF,
alien invasion, near-future dystopia), fantasy (grimdark, sword and
sorcery, contemporary urban fantasy, steampunk, alternative
history), and horror (zombies, vampires, and the occult and
supernatural), and much more. While not every title we publish
becomes a New York Times bestseller, a national bestseller, or a
Hugo or Nebula award-winner, we are committed to publishing quality
books from a diverse group of authors.
