2nd Anthology of Horror: Trees And Other Dystopias

The tales that comprise this anthology cover a broad range of subjects from humor to sci-fi / fantasy. Settings are unified by geography every so often. Themes are revisited and contrasted.

Equally as varied are my inspirations! Mad props go to Poe, Lovecraft, Blackwood, and Alvin Schwartz – short story writers whose work I devour. I extend credit, too, to those whose names are not known. I refer to folklorists and their immortal, blood-soaked yarns, passed from campfire to campfire, that kept me awake so many nights.

You'll find Easter Eggs in the forms of call-backs or shout-outs to my muses and even to my 1st anthology of horror (relax; you don't need to read it). The NAZIs resume their role of lurking, creeping malevolence. Wendigos / Skinwalkers may or may not make cameos. As do ghosts, aliens, cults, and evil of 'everyday' pedigree.
