This collection of Sesqua Valley stories contains new material as well as older work revised or completely rewritten especially for this edition. Sesqua Valley, modeled on North Bend and the Snoqualmie Valley in the Pacific Northwest, is home to Wilum Pugmire's created world of supernatural forces and eldritch beings, attracting mere mortals who feel its call. While inspired by the work of H.P. Lovecraft, Pugmire uses Lovecraftian elements for his own ends, expressing a unique creative and poetic vision that sings of the liberating, if at times terrifying, power of transformation that lies within all of us.
