Shadows from a Veiled Creation provides a collection of classic supernatural short stories that ranges to the depth of its subject, yet are enjoyable stories to read. What is meant by a Christian tradition? These are stories that were written by authors who recognized that a spiritual and moral landscape exists along with the physical. A Christian perspective notes that while we may encounter the supernatural, and it may bewilder or shock, it is not unbounded or unaccountable to the Creator. God created the visible and the invisible, and rules all within.
