HEY I JUST GOT BACK FROM THE GRAVE! YEAH IT WAS A PRETTY NICE TRIP BUT I’M GLAD TO BE HOME! WHAT DO YOU MEAN I HAVE TO DRIVE THIS THING? WHAT’S A CAR? 🚗⁉️ || shop
A scholar’s research into an obscure folk song takes a sinister turn when it leads him to the decaying castle of Astiigos and the lord who governs it.
For readers who enjoy Dracula, The work of Vernon Lee & M.R. James, The Historian, The Castle of Otranto, heavily historical world building and many footnotes. This is a queer gothic horror novel written in the style of early 19th century prose.
“A gorgeous blend of folk horror and the gothic, Astiigos has a vividly imagined world, brooding, elegant prose, and delightfully sexy and eerie secrets in equal measure.” - Robin Zeno
You can get a free teaser or purchase the full Part I on my itch store. $7 gets you the epub, mobi, PDF and a darkmode PDF.
i should mention–i released a version of this back in 2023 and then decided to rewrite all of part I, so this version out now is totally new. if you read the old version, throw it away and get this one (you should be able to download it for free if you bought the old version.) it’s much gayer, more fucked up and gothic and weird and overall much better. thank you !
