Cover reveal! Feast your eyes on Carpe Noctem, a collection of stories about the night. A little spooky, a little edgy, and an extra surprise you might not expect from a book…
Night transforms the world. Owls and bats claim the sky from songbirds, nocturnal predators prowl beneath cover of darkness, and cloying shadows grow thick enough to swallow a scream. As the saying goes: people aren’t truly afraid of the dark—they fear what could be in the darkness with them.
The twenty-two authors featured within the pages of Carpe Noctem descended into these midnight waters to explore the deepest horrors and wildest wonders which darkness cloaks. This anthology is not for the faint of heart.
Carpe Noctem offers an exclusive solo-roleplaying game by Maxwell Lander to serve as your guide to this collection of nighttime tales. Or you can journey alone. What’s the worst that could happen?

Sounds interesting! What’s the nature of the “solo-roleplaying game”? Is it a text-based story type thing, something interactive online that the book points you to, or….??? I’m so curious!
I haven’t seen the game yet, so I cannot give many details. But solo RPGs are growing in popularity. I know this one is tied in with the book layout!
Also, that’s a lovely cover. I like understated covers like that, especially for story collections.
