The Lighthouse That Called the Aliens and Other Stories is a collection of imaginative, genre-bending tales where history, science fiction, and myth converge. From a storm-lashed English coast where forgotten names are spoken back from the sea, to the Hebridean weather rooms where D-Day was balanced on a breath of air, to drifting rafts discovering Land's return, these stories explore how fragile moments alter the course of lives and nations.

In this anthology you'll find:

A near-future myth where a ruined lighthouse becomes a beacon to beings between worlds. A gripping wartime account of meteorology shaping destiny in Overlord's Window. Speculative journeys where oceans breathe, wars remain unfought, and gardens of computation weigh futures in place of armies. The quiet magic of attention, memory, and voices-human or otherwise-that refuse to be forgotten.

Lyrical, tense, and quietly hopeful, this collection will leave you haunted by questions of belonging, survival, and the ways we listen to both the world and each other.
