Description
Possibly Caitlín R. Kiernan's most enduring character, albino monster slayer Dancy Flammarion has been carving a bloody swath across the American South ever since her first appearance in Threshold (2001), “laying the bad folks low. ” In 2006, Subterranean Press published a World Fantasy Award-nominated collection of Dancy Flammarion short stories, Alabaster , and beginning in 2012, Dark Horse Comics released a three-volume graphic novel series introducing Dancy to comics in Wolves (winner of the Bram Stoker Award), Grimmer Tales , and The Good, the Bad, and the Bird. And now, with Comes a Pale Rider , Kiernan offers a second collection of Dancy Flammarion short stories. From Selma, Alabama to the back roads of Georgia to a South Carolina ghost town, Dancy continues her holy war with the beings of night and shadow, driven always on by her own insanity or an angel with a fiery sword—or possibly both.
