Abstract

The Shrinehouse is a short fantasy of about 10,000 words authored by Shauna C. Murphy.

Fifteen-year-old Everlit is torn between an obligation to her adoptive father and her personal heritage. When Everlit is enticed by the Shrinehouse to disown her father's house, the outcome may claim her own freedom instead. The story world of The Shrinehouse intersects between Phillip Pullman’s The Golden Compass and Frank Herbert's Dune. The multi-layered plot addresses issues of identity and humankind's struggle to survive.
