He opened the door to see a smiling postman, his cheeks flushed from the cool spring breeze, the air yet to be warmed by the expectant sun. “Here you go,” remarked the postman as he handed him a neatly wrapped parcel, “...
With a sigh he snapped shut the unavailing book he was reading with more force than he had intended, causing dust to fly from its pages and cascade around him. Balanced precariously on a haphazard stack of old, battered books; the candle by which he was reading spluttered and almost died causing deep shadows to dance across the dark, empty reading room. A shiver ran across his skin and a sense of unease trickled down his spine as he realised it was long gone dusk and he had not seen or heard another person move around in the large, maze-like...
