Books 53 of 2026: the 1993 Collection of the Eden Book Society by @deadinkbooks.bsky.social. Eight novellas by various authors, presented as found books from a tiny British press. Presented here more or less in the order I enjoyed them. Good horror-ish fic.

Eight small books with old-timey covers. On top are “An Attempted Bibliography of the Works of Barbara Livesey” and “The Drain”.

Dead Ink books have this wonderful thing called the EDEN BOOK SOCIETY, which I will link because they explain it better than I do. deadinkbooks.com/pages/the-ed... I backed the 1993 collection sometime last year, and my books all just arrived. They are so pretty!

8 books laid out on the cardboard packaging they came in. The books have beautiful vintage-style marbled covers in various colours.

Well done to @deadinkbooks.bsky.social for another fucked up little beauty of a book. I was literally choked up at the end of this. Big lump in my throat, so, so sad. Never wanted to believe in ghosts so much. Excellent work @saramcclarinet.bsky.social , will be waiting for your next book.
