These dark stories will burrow under your skin and make you question whether or not it's safe to go out at night. Praise for as the Night Devours Us "In many ways, the new world has superseded the old, and we often mourn the loss of the old magic. Villimey Mist's stories will make you reconsider. In her world, the dangers of myth are all too real. Gods seek vengeance, mythical beasts roil beneath the waves, and the undead stalk the living. But the real threat lies in a parent's desperation, a brother's mocking, a friend's betrayal. This is a fascinating, unsettling selection of horrors." Brandon Applegate, author of Those We Left Behind and Other Sacrifices "Villimey must be magic. That's the only plausible explanation. How else is it possible to produce such varied short-form genre fiction covering so many themes, each executed vividly and so well?
From Icelandic lore to mythical beasts, found footage to human monsters, interwoven with a whole heap of revenge, this collection will not only fuel your nightmares, but also put Villimey firmly on the map. As the Night Devours Us delivers punch after punch and Villimey absolutely (finger) nails it!" Janine Pipe, author of Sausages: Making of Dog Soldiers
