The Duganga’s Curse

Published Copy

Blurb

Ezra loved anything sweet… But something has taken his hunger away, and it won’t let him go.

Ezra has everything… except an appetite.

What his distant parents dismiss as a "spoiled brat's tantrum" is, in reality, a death sentence. A hooded creature has claimed Ezra’s hunger, waiting patiently for the boy to waste away until his bones are ready to be picked clean.

His only hope lies in a nine-day rule he cannot break. In a world of shadows where no one hears his cries, only the housekeeper will try to save him—before the monster beneath the bed decides that Ezra is finally ready for dinner.

A dark short story set in the World of Blackwyn.
