Aliens with wings. Mysterious deaths. Monsters and swords and heroes. Inspired by everything from nightmares to writing contests, each of the ten stories included in this collection offers something unique, whether it be horror, fantasy, science fiction or humor. Included are two short stories previously published in now-closed magazines, a short story that prompted the creation of a full-length novel, and a five-part series previously available only in separate e-book forms. Also included in this collection is the short story "So It Begins," a companion piece to the upcoming novel (tentatively titled at the time of this publication) The Dragon Three.
