The darkling pool closes, in this, the fourth and final instalment of the Darkling Pool series. As the door draws inward, the tales continue. You are immersed in the abstract moments of misery. The nightmare chokes away the last screams and the void dies to a calm acceptance of a fate that is irrevocably intertwined with a place of shadows that steals away the last hope of sleep, in this collection of macabre stories and haunting verse. What lies beyond the darkling pool is a place of wonder, in the thoughts provoked by the nightmares of dreams that offer no resolution in the light of this reality.
