WHERE FURNACES BURN

'A poet of misfits, outsiders and the forsaken, his empathy for their suffering ever poignant.'

— Adam Nevill, author of The Ritual
'Joel Lane understood and expertly exploited the connection between exterior and interior landscapes like no other.'

— Paul Tremblay, author of The Pallbearer's Club
Pale-faced thieves gather by a disused railway to watch a puppet theatre of love and violence.

Why do local youths keep starting fires in the ash woods around a disused mine in the Black Country?

A series of inexplicable deaths uncover a secret cult of machine worship.

When a migrant worker disappears, the key suspect is a boy driven mad by memories that are not his own.

Among the derelict factories and warehouses at the heart of the city, an archaic god seeks out his willing victims.

Blurring the occult detective story with urban noir fiction, Where Furnaces Burn offers a glimpse of the myths and terrors buried within the industrial landscape.

First published in 2012, Joel Lane's World Fantasy Award-winning collection is a true modern classic of weird fiction that cemented his place as one of the most important and distinctive British writers of the weird.
