About the Book:
This debut collection of seventeen short stories, seven poems and four humor essays from Lucy A. Snyder will appeal to any reader of the dark fantastic.

Praise & Reviews:
"It's a bacchanalia in there. And I must tell you: you may never find your way out again."
— Nalo Hopkinson, from her introduction

"Snyder's work is vibrant and resonant and superbly measured ... Short, sharp, and sometimes slightly shocking, (her) fiction is always memorable. ... (T)he stories in Sparks and Shadows weave a spell that'll prove hard to shake. It really is a bacchanalia in there, and you just might find you don't want to turn the last page. Nicely presented as a limited edition from HW Press with a distinctive Deena Warner cover, this volume belongs in any serious dark fantasy collection."
— ChiZine

"(N)o matter what kind of story you like - romantic, creepy, violently scary, Hitchcockian, devilishly clever, or packed with fantastic adventure, you'll find something in this book that will seem written just for you."
— FearZone

"(N)ot only does Lucy A. Snyder write truly intelligent horror that is both witty and political but her stories and poems tap the feminist potential of horror to illuminate the shadowy extremes of both love and hate. ... whether you are looking for dark fantasy or horror or just something to tickle your funny bone, I recommend you pick up a copy."
