Storm Constantine was a prolific short fiction writer, and her collections span from Three Heralds of the Storm (1997) through Mythotenebrae (2020). The collections are individually themed, with the “Myth-” series (Mythanima, Mythophidia, Mytholumina, Mythangelus, Mythanimus, Mythumbra, Mythotenebrae) forming a connected sequence of dark fantasy and mythological stories.

Other collections like The Oracle Lips (1999), Splinters of Truth (2016), and Blood, the Phoenix and a Rose (2016) gather standalone short fiction from across her career. Constantine’s short stories share the atmospheric, sensual quality of her novels but often take more experimental risks with form and subject matter.
