    About this ebook

    This collection contains a representative sample of G. Deyke's best and best-known work up to June 2014, including such stories as "Ira", "Her Fading", and "Fingernails, Please". Beginning with fairy tales and swooping through humor and science fiction to poignant realism, "Fire and Silver" is an ideal introduction to G. Deyke's writing.

    G. Deyke

    G. Deyke is an indie author of games, novels, short stories, flash fiction, and the occasional poem. They will write anything from humor to horror to fairy tales, but have a particular penchant for speculative fiction: especially (though not exclusively) fantasy. They currently reside in a small village in southern Germany. Due to a tragic imbalance of their machismo-to-sense ratio, G. Deyke can never refuse a ridiculous challenge.
