Genius Loci


Guardian spirits. Divine presences. Demonic powers. Ghosts. The concept of "genius loci" is indeed an ancient one, found in nearly every human mythology. "Genius Loci" is a huge anthology of 31 all-new fantasy and science fiction stories drawing on the rich tradition of place-as-person.

Grabenstetter and Evan M. Jensen., and edited by Jaym Gates.

It's currently available in paperback, an e-version to follow soon we hope:
