'A new collection of poems from C S Hughes, that tell tales barbarous and strange. Of water witches and dead roads, kings of owls and beggarly crows, dubious merchants, three time losers, lost sailors and lost souls, the drunk the brazen and the brave, and much else besides. Poems that tell tales, tales that tell poems. Whimsical, cruel, grim, surprising and strange.'
