Winter's Myths

by Gage Greenwood

Overview

When the world ends, who will tell the story?

After a disease ravages his underground community, Winter escapes with his daughters to the dangerous surface of Earth. With the planet largely abandoned, he has no one to help him make sense of this strange new world while trying to keep his children alive. But the surface is not all complicated artifacts and relics of a deserted universe. Winter is certain someone--or something--is hunting them.

He weaves wild tales to entertain and teach his daughters, turning ordinary Earth inventions into props for wild fairy tales, stories where celebrities become demigods and historical figures transform into ice giants. As his journey grows darker and more dangerous, his mythologies keep his children, and himself, from confusion and despair.

With tensions rising and danger at every corner, will Winter keep his family alive long enough to finish his tales?

Editorial Reviews

I love what Winter's Myths had to say... about the necessity of storytelling... about the pitfalls of being afraid of the world at large... about what it means to define yourself as human or otherwise. It's so rare that I read something that feels special to me... and Winter's Myths felt special.

Jonathan Edward Durham, award winning author of Winterset Hollow

Greenwood's post-apocalyptic cast inhabits a world of wonders, where what is commonplace to the reader becomes dark, magical, treacherous... and miraculous. He leavens terror with whimsy. His work is visionary, one of the most original voices in the genre in this new century.

S.P. Somtow, world fantasy award winning author of the bird catcher

Winter's Myths forces you to abandon your expectations and run with the weirdness, and you'll want to... It's wound with a thread of terror and mystery that keeps you scouring the story for answers, characters that will keep you coming back, and rich descriptions that unnerve, endear, and terrify.

Justine Manzano, author of The Order of the Key

Greenwood has masterfully woven a tale ripe with suspense, quirky WTF moments, and dystopian despair that will keep your jaw dropped to the floor...Action, suspense, loss, love, and characters that will live in your head long after the words pass by your eyes. Do NOT miss this.

Jae Mazer, award winning author of Mr. Picket Blackmaw

Winter's Myths dances through genres at breakneck speeds... Greenwood nails it all down into a streamlined, cohesive masterpiece, packed to the brim with philosophical soundness, rock solid dialogue, and heartfelt thematic power. I'm in love with this story.

Andrew L. Hicks, author of The Art of Being Human
