Like a Twenty-first Century Bosch and Bruegel, Breukelaar and Doubinsky conjure nightmare vignettes from the bowels of our most ancient unconscious. Turning of the Seasons is a glorious, grisly folk-horror concept album: Fairport Convention's psychographic ode to Hell. --J. Ashley-Smith, Shirley Jackson Award winning author of Ariadne, I Love You A fantastical book of stories from two unique voices. --Shirley Jackson Award Winner, Kaaron Warren The Turning of the Seasons: A Dark Almanac, by Seb Doubinsky and J. S. Breukelaar, is a compendium of mythic and folkloric short stories and poetry from the realm of the Weird -- a delightfully strange, compact presentation by two fine writers. --Jeffrey Ford J.S. Breukelaar and Sebastien Doubinsky's voices are distinct but marry perfectly in a stripped back fablesque style. They give us delicacy and brutality. They give us funny. -- Priya Sharma
