Overview

Collected here are twenty-four dark, quirky, eccentric stories. Trent Zelazny will surprise you, entertain you, and take you places you've never been before. A new strong, confident voice has arrived. Zelazny could have chosen to make a career of covering the same ground that his father had already plowed. Instead he has chosen to strike out on his own and prove right out of the gate that he is his own man.

Trent Zelazny is off and running. I have someone new to admire." -Joe R. Lansdale, Edgar Award winner and seven-time Bram Stoker Award winner

"Trent Zelazny is a master of tension, frisson, madness, and mayhem. I love the way he writes and read everything I can get my hands on. You should do the same." -Gerald Hausman, author of Time Swimmer and Castaways

"A gift for storytelling is in Trent Zelazny's genes. It's a pleasure to crack open his book and let him carry you away." -Charles Ardai, Edgar and Shamus Award winner

"You can tell Trent Zelazny is having fun when he's writing, because his work is so much fun to read . . . You should try it sometime." -Brian Knight, author of Broken Angel and Sex, Death & Honey

"Trent Zelazny pulls off ideas most other writers wouldn't dream of, never mind attempt. That he succeeds is testament to the length of his imagination and the breadth of his talent. He will not live long in the literary shadow of his father, but will soon take his rightful place beside him as one of the most important writers of the fantastic this country has produced." -Garrett Peck

    Highly recommend!!!

    Zelazny's collection of short stories runs the gamut from gruesome to simply haunting, with more than a little noir.

    'Hope Is an Inatimate Desire' is simply the eeriest ghost story I have ever come across, and literally gave me chills. A completely new and terrifying vision, Zelazny's creativity with the genre is mind-boggling.

    That creativity is also put to gory use in the title story and others, most of them violent, some more disturbing than others.

    The range of material here is huge, but it does manage to form a cohesive piece when collected into this book, mostly due to Zelazny's mastery with writing the inner darkness of often warped human psychology and twisted desire.

    Highly recommend!

    What about the novel?

    There has been talk for a long time about a novel called Destination Unknown. Is that ever coming out? I really enjoyed this and have been looking forward to more.

    Second time I've read it

    I've read this collection twice since it came out. I liked it the first time. Second time it seems to have grown on me even more. The stories are funny and disturbing and you may need a certain type of sense of humor. For me, it is darkly twisted great fun. I recommend it to anyone who likes horror or quirky off-the-wall stories.
