Through a Forest of Light and Darkness

From high fantasy to contemporary romance, there is a story here to bring you into the light or deposit you into the darkness. The one constant that runs through each story is love, whether it's romantic or familial, love of your fellow human or love of a creation, it lives inside these pages. Creating worlds from a spark of inspiration, this collection holds stories that are timeless and legendary.

Through a Forest of Light and Darkness collects all twelve stories written by Moriarty for the first generation of the Emerge project plus a bonus story and an extensive interview with the author. Emerge collected nine diverse storytellers-a spectrum of style, ideology, politics, race, sexuality, and religion. For one year, authors were sent a monthly writing prompt, creating flashpoints to craft their best work. Explore Emerge Winter, Emerge Spring, Emerge Summer, Emerge Autumn, and The Emerge Guidebook to discover their original stories.
