Taming Never Ends is the fourth volume in the Curtainfall series — a gothic collection of engraved coin art and poetic storytelling that honors the tamers, handlers, and ghostly trainers of the circus. These skeletal figures were not just performers. They were presence. Still and silent, they commanded lions, snakes, elephants, and shadows — not through fear, but with bone-deep control. Carved into Buffalo Nickels, each figure remains where the ring once stood, watching from the edge of the cage, whip in hand, eyes hollow and fixed.
Inside are over 30 black-and-white illustrations paired with lyrical narratives. The Tamer of Teeth. The Bone Barker. The Whispered Coil. These are the ones who led without needing to speak. Their beasts may have vanished, but their power has not. This is a volume about ritual, posture, and the quiet tension between instinct and control. Taming Never Ends is not about domination. It is about the weight of command — and those who carried it without raising their voice.
