Original handpainted cover by Steven Archer
A Rhapsody for the Eternal is a complex gilded clock where gears in the future clank against the cogs of the past. Behind it all lies the mystery of human destiny. This is a new science that smells of dusty books and ancient secrets, things beyond human understanding. Speegle haunts his own stories with delicate insinuations of something more, something deeper. Yet even at the surface these stories breathe with tension. From the Tiptoeing Monk unraveling the riddle of a nursery rhyme to the parents of the first ghost born in centuries, these fantasies feel real and the people, though from a different time, are compelling in a way that our actual neighbors rarely are.
Lettered Edition limited to 26 copies (A-Z). An original painting by Steven Archer is on the cover of each book. No two cover paintings will have the same image but they are all in the same style as the standard edition cover and they feature a crow somewhere in the painting. The books are signed by both the artist and the author. In addition the volume contains two bonus stories that are unavailable elsewhere; "The Sire of Reliquien" and "Awakening."
NOTE: The image is just a representation and not the actual image.
