Overview
This Emilia Hart collection brings together three atmospheric reads for fans of gothic, witchy, and unsettling fiction. Weyward and The Sirens showcase Hart's gift for weaving generations of women together through nature, myth, and suspense, while Of the Flesh adds a chilling short-story anthology co-written with Hart and a lineup of acclaimed horror authors. Together, the set offers a rich blend of historical fiction, contemporary mystery, and modern horror, ideal for readers who love layered storytelling with a supernatural edge and strong, complicated women at the center of every page.
About the Books
Weyward introduces three women across five centuries — Altha, accused of witchcraft in the 1600s; Violet, trapped by convention in 1942; and Kate, fleeing an abusive relationship in the present day — whose lives are bound together by a mysterious connection to the natural world. Told in alternating timelines, it is a story about inherited power and the courage it takes for women to claim their own strength across generations. The Sirens continues Hart's exploration of women separated by time, weaving a mystery around sisters whose fates are tied to the sea and to a haunting family secret. Both novels share Hart's signature style: lyrical prose, layered timelines, and a pull toward folklore and the uncanny. Of the Flesh takes the collection in a different direction, gathering original horror stories from an impressive roster of contemporary authors, including Emilia Hart herself alongside Susan Barker, Bridget Collins, Michel Faber, and others. Each story explores the body, transformation, and fear in inventive, unsettling ways, making the anthology a natural companion to Hart's novels for readers who enjoy short, sharp scares alongside longer, more immersive fiction and want a wider taste of today's literary horror scene. Placed together, this three-book set moves from slow-burn historical suspense to contemporary gothic mystery to bite-sized horror, giving readers a well-rounded sampler of atmospheric, character-driven storytelling.
