The anthology runs loosely chronologically, with tales from before the Dark Ages to beyond the end of the world. "The Giant's End" by Ash Mandrake. A wonderfully imaginative tale of how the giants of Albion gave their names to stone circles. "Gelert's Hound" by Steven C. Davis and Wulfenstæg. A poignant and dreamy reimagining of the Hound of Gelert tale. "Jack the Theorist" by Jon Hartless. London, 1888. The reign of Jack the Ripper begins… Only one man dares to confront the meaning behind the crimes. Only one man sees through the tangled skein to the truth. Only one man knows the answers. Or, at least, only one man thinks he knows the answers... Follow Professor Wolf, the world’s first Ripperologist, on his delusional journey into the world of the Ripper. Follow his long-suffering friend, Sir Arthur Smythe, who suspects it will all end in tears. Gasp at the revelations! Tremble at the truth! Wonder at the sort of mind that can leap from conspiracy to conspiracy without ever touching reality! "The Heart's Malevolence" by Steven C. Davis, with characters created by Steven C. Davis and S. J. Stewart. A dark Steampunk tale – all seems lost when the crew of the Herbert George crash land on the island home of notorious billionaire, Augustine C-Clementine. Condemned as rebels against the Empire that Augustine supports, the crew are in trouble – but there’s always hope in clockwork! <
