A Word from Moira Katson
Every once in a while, a book will knock you entirely off your feet. House of Leaves did that to me. While the climax of the book was frightening and breathless, the most terrifying piece for me was the idea of reality just slightly shifted: the moment of seeing something that can’t be real and trying to assimilate it, doubting your own memories and trying desperately to reconcile the world as it is with the world as it should be.
I was so disturbed by House of Leaves that I avoided horror with a passion after that. I focused on science fiction and fantasy, two early loves. One of my first memories is of my mother reading to me: A Wrinkle in Time, The Hobbit, Dealing with Dragons, and countless other books with dragons, spaceships, and characters pushing their own limits.
So imagine my surprise when the story of the Emily May arrived in my head on a chilly fall morning. I wrote in the predawn darkness while peering nervously over my shoulder for beasts and errant spaceships, and managed to quite thoroughly frighten myself. I hope you have found the story as deliciously creepy as I did!
It has been wonderful to work with the other authors of The Alien Chronicles. I encourage you to look out for their other work as well—they are a tremendously talented group, and I have spent many an hour curled up by a fire, losing myself in the worlds they have created.
Happy reading!
