Each story within is its own special candy, sweet and delicious! You'll want to savour each one!

Sarah Beth Durst, New York Times bestselling author of The Spellshop

A delightful confection you’ll enjoy reaching for whenever a craving for magic, healing, and wonder strikes. But beware - its Invisible Wasanbon, Surrogate Caramels, and Enlightening Candy Apples are addictive . . .

Samantha Sotto Yambao, bestselling author of Water Moon

The Amberglow Candy Store seasons the sweetest and most savoury morsels of human connection with a dash of intrigue that cosy fantasy readers are bound to savour. The obvious care in Matt Treyvaud’s translation puts the cherry on top of this binge-worthy comfort treat!

M. Jean, translator of Messenger Cat Café

A charming book of linked stories with a sprinkling of cosy fantasy and a fable-like touch . . . 
 
The Amberglow Candy Store in the Night Alley introduces the reader to half-fox shopkeeper Kogetsu, whose magical wagashi sweets from his shop on Gloaming Lane promise to change his customers' lives for the better. 
 
We follow an array of characters from various walks of life through their encounters with Kogetsu, who himself learns some major life lessons along the way, and reveals his own backstory in the process.
