Bizarre Tales Edition

The Crown of Glass

by Sebastian Michaels

Patrick Granger, following the impossible voice of Helena Winscott, heads west into The Strangest Unknown, following strange patterns from The Cosmic StarDuster, designed to communicate to the stars through a landline attachment. Using a field phone, Granger follows the last remnants of Winscott, who mysteriously vanished without a trace. Granger experiences strange events, cosmic judgement, and follows a seven star constellation that he believes is tied to Winscott. What kind of fate lies beyond what's known?
