Swords in the Shadows features twenty-one stories with a bloody stake driven into the heart of both the horror and fantasy camps. Herein, you will find fantasy worlds, brave warriors, fabulous creatures, wondrous magic. But you will also uncover bloodcurdling chills, spine-tingling horror, and an examination of those things that truly terrify.

"So truthful, bold, clear, candid and convincing that I read it in one breathless sitting" Stephen FryOne night three years ago Josh Roberts went to a party. The next morning he awoke to discover his mind had collapsed. In a matter of days he went from being a fun loving, seemingly successful twenty-something to a hot mess of tears and nerves. Eventually he was diagnosed with Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD). Since then, he's been mending his mind, rediscovering happiness and learning to live his nervous life.

Told with originality, wit and great humour, it's an essential guide for mental health and a thought-provoking exploration of the millennial condition.***************"The best book I have ever written" Josh Roberts (debut author of Anxious Man)"Yep, fine" Cali Mackrill (girlfriend of author of Anxious Man)"Have you seen my scissors?"
