THE WINTER TRIPTYCH is a story plucked from a tapestry's thread. In one panel Liese is a scullery maid working in Queenskeep, where tragedy and treason have ruled for one hundred years. In the night, she chases ghosts up a winding stair. There, in another, Isele is a traitor's hope, and here a huntsman seeks to unwind them from a curse's knot. The panels flow together as the story unfolds, until ghosts and curses collide at the top of the Keep."Nicole Kornher-Stace is a remarkably fresh literary voice that sounds like no other. The dreamscapes she paints with her words are magical and breathtaking. As dangerous as it may be, you still want to walk around in her world and get to know the people there." – Ann VanderMeer, editor of WEIRD TALES
