The androgynous and mysterious Wraeththu have risen to replace
humanity upon a ravaged world. Following on from the successful
anthologies Paragenesis and Para Imminence, this collection of
tales focuses upon the enigmas that might be found within the
disparate tribes - how Wraeththu could have - or will - develop in
strange and unimagined ways. Based on the world created by Storm
Constantine for her Wraeththu novels, the stories in this
collection explore different, intriguing aspects of bizarre
mutations and specialisations that have arisen, hidden within the
developing Wraeththu tribes and throughout the corners of the
world. Shape-shifters, semi-mythological beings, or hara who have
evolved in other unexpected ways, Para Kindred expands the horizons
of the Wraeththu world, touching upon countries - such as those of
the Far East and the African continent - that have not appeared in
the Mythos before. Para Kindred features stories from ten writers,
some of whom are well known within Wraeththu fandom and/or have
written Wraeththu Mythos novels published by Immanion Press. Also
included are two new stories each by Storm Constantine and Wendy
Darling. Featuring stories by: Storm Constantine, Wendy Darling,
Martina Bellovi ova, Ash Corvida, Nerine Dorman, Suzanne Gabriel,
Fiona Lane, Maria J Leel, Daniela Ritter and E S Wynn."
The androgynous and mysterious Wraeththu have risen to replace
humanity upon a ravaged world. Is it inevitable they will forget
the mistakes of the past wrought by their human ancestors or will
they truly evolve to become the guardian, sentient race this Earth
deserves? Based on the world created by Storm Constantine for her
Wraeththu novels, the stories in this collection explore different,
intriguing aspects of Wraeththu's possible future. Whether that is
leaving the earthly realm to explore the uncharted reaches of the
multiverse via the Otherlanes, raising the ancient lost continents
of humanity's myths and legends, surfing the psychic equivalent of
the Internet, coming to terms with their race's human past, or
simply revisiting earlier territory where pain and disappointment
might still lurk, Para Imminence offers a vibrant and colourful
compendium of visions of the future of harakind. Para Imminence
features an introduction by TV producer/writer Brad Carpenter, who
is working on a film script based on the Wraeththu novels, and
stories from eleven writers, some of whom are well known within
Wraeththu fandom and/or have written Wraeththu Mythos novels
published by Immanion Press. Featuring stories by: Storm
Constantine, Wendy Darling, Martina Bellovi ova, Andy Bigwood,
Victoria Copus, Suzanne Gabriel, Fiona Lane, Maria J Leel, Martina
Luise Pachali, Daniela Ritter and E S Wynn.
Humanity's time is done. As a species it has ravaged the world and
its own societies. From the ruins of civilisation arises a new
race: Wraeththu. Androgynous, powerful and deadly, Wraeththu must
rebuild or start anew. But when they are steeped in tribal warfare
and gang culture - remnants of their human past - many cannot see
beyond the moment, and it is up to the few who can to attempt to
initiate change and growth. Based on the world created by Storm
Constantine for her Wraeththu novels, the stories in this
collection are set in the very early days of Wraeththu history.
Struggling to come to terms with their new condition, fighting to
survive amid the hostile humans who remain, and the often
equally-hostile hara of other tribes, Wraeththu must learn quickly
how to master their powerful abilities or succumb to the same fate
that destroyed humanity. With an introduction by TV producer Brad
Carpenter, who is working on a TV mini-series inspired by the
Wraeththu novels, and stories from ten writers, many of whom are
well-known within Wraeththu fandom, and including a new story from
Storm herself, Paragenesis expands upon the mythology of the
novels, telling the stories of the prime movers whose lives altered
the fate of Wraeththu for ever and the hara whose tenacity and
strength helped shape the future of their race.
