Storytellers

If you don't tell your story, they will.

Iceland, 1920. Gunnar, a hermit blacksmith, dwells with his animals, darkness, and moonshine. The last thing he wants is an injured lodger, but his money may change Gunnar's life. So might the stranger's story – by ending it. That is, unless an unwanted marriage, God's messengers' sudden interest, an obnoxious elf, or his doctor's guilt change the narrative. Or will the demons from Gunnar's past cut all the stories short?

Side effects of too much truth include death, but one man's true story is his brother's web of lies. With so many eager to write his final chapter, can Gunnar find his own happy ending?
