    About this ebook

    Flash fiction from the world of Taloria. Young Charlie really wanted to see the fabled demon of Skora, said to be imprisoned for centuries by the shackles at the local shrine, only appearing at the winter solstice. Instead he has found what seems to be a grumpy old man. Does he dare release him at the risk of unleashing a demon on the world?
