Rumbullion
& Other Liminal Libations

"Euhoi! Euhoi! Come, Bacchus!"

Molly Tanzer presents a collection of weird and fantastical tales: Rumbullion & Other Liminal Libations incorporating a novella—a disquieting tale of 18th Century decadence, charlatanism, super- natural ritual, and violent, bloody murder, told in the epistolary style—along with a number of previously uncollected and critically acclaimed short stories.

Each piece is furthermore presented with a corresponding imbibation from Molly's distinctive repertoire, to be concocted by the reader with the hope that his or her enjoyment of the story will be in some small way enhanced—and that Bacchus guide them on.
