Description
Featuring the Bram Stoker Award Finalist Story “Letting Go”!
Roses scented with bitter deception, Oracles redolent in hidden redemption, a body-mod-obsessed ingenue with an amputee fetish and a demon gone soft on a bitter angel. Dreamcatchers, an alternate Nativity with a pimp God and a non-compliant Mary, Stupid Bitch the three-legged cat and the secret explanation of how Germany almost won the war with the devil on their side. These are just a few of the provocative sets in these 19 stories rife with “Needles & Sins”…
John Everson’s third horror short fiction collection includes the Bram Stoker Award Finalist “Letting Go,” as well as five stories that made the Honorable Mention list in the Year’s Best Fantasy & Horror anthology series: “Spirits Having Flown,” “The Beginning Was The End,” “The Strong Will Survive,” “Something Inside,” and “You Never Got Used to the Needle.”
This updated paperback third edition from Dark Arts Books, released in 2021, includes a new Afterword by John Everson as well as a reintroduction of the first edition’s original interior art.
