Contributors were given just those two words: 'Dark Currents' and then asked to let their imaginations run wild... From haunted seascapes to distant starscapes, from reality-hopping soldiers to naval battles in the aether, from the deeply poignant to the breathlessly exciting... immerse yourself in deep Dark Currents.
