Fatum. The darkest centuries. Collection

After the triumphal seizure of the serial scene "game of thrones", the classic canon of dark fantasy is perceived exclusively as a bloody trash with executions, perversions and eating hearts. Indeed, Dark Fantasy is a story with the elements of Gothic and Horror, the action of which takes place in traditional fantasy setting. But on the pages of the most famous works you will practically not find demons, werewolves and other zombies. The most successful samples were obtained when the authors caught up with depression not by an abundance of monsters and bloody details, but by common noir and decadence. Heroes act in a slowly fading world, the end of history is close, inevitable and, in general, deserved. The kingdom is on the verge of collapse, the people are dying out, and they will certainly lose the war that the characters. As one beautiful author said (completely about another era, true): "There is some kind of perverted joy - in spite of Rock to die for a hopelessly lost business."
