The Faustian Curiosity NovellasHave you ever felt a sudden shiver, that feeling of something behind you that's gone as soon as you turn to look? You've caught a glimpse of a world of shadows and demons that's been hidden from you by ancient bargains. At any moment of your daily life, as you study at school or stroll about town, the thin veil that protects you from devious mysteries and desperate battles could be ripped away.

It is only by the unnoticed efforts of young Exorcists and other fighters that you are kept safe from the horrors that lurk within the shadow realm. Faustian Curiosity is an innovation of storytelling, intertwining four novellas bookended by an epic battle for the fate of the world.
