Dark and Distant Voices

"This is every card in the horror deck, played by someone who knows the game better than most of us ever will."-Stephen Graham Jones, author of MONGRELS, AFTER THE PEOPLE LIGHTS HAVE GONE OFF, and THREE MILES PAST "'Hell is other people, ' Jean-Paul Sartre tells us. 'Especially the one we see in the mirror, ' implicitly says Tim Waggoner. Both give us the theme of Waggoner's splendid Dark and Distant Voices. Our children we don't quite recognize, colleagues not all that collegial, ghosts who silently speak the Truth ... They're all here and more in Waggoner's brilliant story collection."-Mort Castle, author of THE STRANGERS and CURSED BE THE CHILD They come to you at night. The voices. Spinning tales of blasphemous wonder, terrible wisdom, and unspeakable truth. You try to shut them out, try to get away, but you can't. For the voices you thought were coming from so far away... they're inside you. And they won't stop screaming. Ever. Nineteen stories of the bizarre and fantastic from the mind of Bram Stoker Award-winning author Tim Waggoner, "horror fiction's leading surrealist" (Cemetery Dance Magazine).
