Description:

A solitary wanderer receives an unusual black stone from an Inuit woman living on the northern coast. Believing it to be a practical aid against the bitter post-Light Canadian winters, he carries it with him, using its ability to retain heat as he travels from settlement to settlement.

As the years pass, his health begins to deteriorate, and strange disturbances intrude on his increasingly isolated existence. The stone becomes more than a curious keepsake, and the distinction between physical affliction, failing perception, and something far older grows difficult to discern.

PITCHBLENDE is a quiet, unsettling tale of folklore, isolation, survival, and the strange things people carry with them.

Reader's Review:

PITCHBLENDE — 4.8/5 stars: A quietly unsettling piece of Canadian weird fiction that blends northern folklore, isolation, and creeping physical horror. The story builds its unease patiently, allowing the ordinary details of survival to become increasingly strange. Its central mystery works on several levels, never forcing the reader to choose between the supernatural and the physical. Atmospheric, restrained, and anchored by a memorable ending.

Author Details:

STÉPHANE C. ROY

Stéphane Roy is a lifelong reader and writer with a deep love for science fiction, apocalyptic worlds, and tightly constructed mysteries. This is his first novel. He lives in the Yukon with his dog and his aquarium, where long winters, silence, and wide, sometimes glowing, skies leave plenty of room for imagining the end of the world, and what might come after it. He is also waiting, with cautious optimism, for the aliens to finally reveal themselves and straighten us all out.
