“Medea”

In "Medea," Pat Boyette crafts a haunting tale of isolation and twisted devotion, set in a quiet German village where a lonely farmer takes in a strange, bulbous-headed creature. As the creature’s past and the Baron’s cruelty come to light, the story spirals into a dark act of retribution—leaving Max Schuller with a horrifying gift from the very being he once sheltered. Jeff Jones’s chilling cover perfectly captures the story’s eerie tone.
