Villipede Publications' first horror and dark speculative fiction
anthology will tenderly caress your amygdalae and viciously twist
your imagination. With fifteen short stories and four poems from
both established and upcoming authors, this haunting collection
will force readers to reevaluate their thoughts on what darkness
really is: something we're all born of yet perpetually trying to
flee; a malevolent force that desires our servitude or
destruction-or something that simply wishes to lock us in its cold,
scaly, fathomless grip. Or perhaps, even, it's an asylum for our
jittery minds and confused hearts-a place of solace where humans
may patiently inspect their primal natures and desires . . . a
place where the barriers between monster and man begin to shift and
break down. The authors' origins span the breadth of the globe: the
UK, Greece, Australia, Sweden, the US-and their stories are just as
diverse. While the styles and subject matter of the stories may
differ greatly, what is consistent is the dedication each author
has harnessed to create unique fiction and scenarios of bewitching
caliber. Holding Darkness Ad Infinitum in your trembling hands, you
may find yourself faced with a simple ultimatum: Do you turn around
and embrace the darkness of your own free will . . . or will it
embrace you first? Contents: LONGBOAT - Becky Regalado, IN THE
