About this list
Here we are in these dark winter months, with a long way still to go. Instead of counting the days till warmer weather, we invite you to take a different approach. Embrace it. There is an undeniable magic to the chill, the way it can freeze the world into a living sculpture, and it's something to relish, not escape. In these dark and twisty fantasies (with some sci-fi peppered in), the winter setting heightens the stakes and adds an element of allure. Start at the top of this list, and you'll get some winterscapes that revel in the beauty of the cold. Go deeper, and we'll get darker. Are you up for it?-
