About this ebook

Darkness gathers in haunted corners. Nineteen stories of monsters, ghosts and madmen, and finding hope in unlikely heroes


What unimaginable evil hunts a war-weary lighthouse keeper? Will an exiled dressmaker's bargain with her brother's executioner free her from his ghost? Can an airship crew bring a madman to justice at the bottom of the world? Will teenage ghost hunters be destroyed by the dark secrets they've unearthed?

Mnemo's Memory and Other Fantastic Tales collects nineteen short stories of mythic worlds, rattling adventure and dark humour from Australian author David Versace, featuring his Aurealis Award-nominated fantasy stories 'The Lighthouse at Cape Defeat' and 'The Dressmaker and the Colonel's Coat'.

David Versace

David Versace writes fantasy and science fiction. His work appears in the anthologies Next (CSFG Publishing) and At the Edge (Paper Road Press). His short story 'The Lighthouse at Cape Defeat' was a Best Fantasy Short Story finalist in the 2016 Aurealis Awards. He is a member of the Canberra Speculative Fiction Guild, who can vouch for his whereabouts on the night in question. He is a voracious consumer of speculative fiction, comics, wine, and television drama. He is teaching himself basic coding, bass guitar and how to write novels. He lives with his wife and two children in Canberra, Australia. They tolerate his interests with patient good humour.
