For the first time, the twenty-two stories found in Pandora's Children books 1-5 and Dark Interludes have been combined into two easy-to-navigate volumes. Each book also contains a bonus story at the end and an excerpt from a novella. This collection contains two dozen dark stories, tales where men become monsters, monsters become men, and no one is ever truly safe. You will find ghosts, demons and monsters; evil men, madmen and broken men; a wood-chipper, Santa Claus and yes, a handful of dentists. Each book contains twelve disturbing, provocative tales which will keep you thinking long after you're done reading. In Volume 2, you will find these twelve stories: Four Corners- An intersection in New Orleans that shouldn't exist Gone in a Flash- A flash mob in a quiet section of Philadelphia goes horribly wrong A Little Snack- A depraved attorney learns the cost of forbidden pleasure Stolen Honor- A beer delivery man learns the cost of pretending to be what he isn't As Seen on Craig's List- A children's house with a dark secret A Matter of Faith, A Matter of Balance- A religious leader learns the consequences of forming a cult in the Utah desert SM Services- The housewife of a rich banker learns that not everything in her new house is what it seems Up the Dial- A radio talk-show host finds himself directing the dead after he dies Naughty and Nice- A holiday Grinch is taught a lesson he will never forget when he steals from a department store Santa. (previously published in Suspense Magazine) Dentures- A man who has lost the rest of the teeth looks to get a new pair of dentures so that he can feel young again Roadside Memorial- An ex-con tries to right a horrible wrong in a most brutal fashion when a bullet meant for him finds a young child instead Blink- A simple piece of body jewelry makes a mild-mannered dentist think he is losing his mind. Bonus excerpt- The first half of my 18,000 word novella, King of the Merge.
