Sarena Ulibarri

Twelve stories of mythic fantasy that will transport you to the oceans and mountains of lands where water nymphs long for the touch of a mermaid, a mother's tears of grief create a river in a desert village, and ancient songs can stop the moon from falling, make a flower bloom, or keep a dark power at bay. A quest to save a princess turns into a mission to escape a cult of giant snails. A selfish older sister seeks the favor of the last magical queen who grants wishes when the two moons align.
A refugee journeys to find her lover while a comet hurtles toward their world. This collection features short stories that have appeared in publications such as Lightspeed, Weirdbook, and Apparition Literary Magazine, as well as two original tales that can't be found anywhere else.
