‘Eventyr’ is the Danish word for fairy tales. It also means adventure.

​

Magic dust, a disorientating walk, vengeful crows, the liminal space between life and death, and an incorporeal captive. These are just some of the ideas that give rise to the weird and wistful tales within.

​

The Eventyr take an esoteric turn in this collection leaving the certainty of our human experiences behind. These tales pull back the veil of reality to provide glimpses of worlds beyond this one and lead us to ask: what, indeed, is beyond our perceived reality?

​

Following the success of 12 Unlikely Conversations, 12 Tales of Love Beyond the Grave, 12 Tales of Unbreakable Friendship, and 12 Tales of Dread and Horror comes Andrew O’Connell’s fifth book of the Eventyr series: 12 Weird and Wistful Tales.
