The Abyss Beyond the Reflection (Paperback)

Paperback. A collection of ten short stories bleeding with weird horrors, driven by characters who have amazing depth. A socialite dives into abyssal depths, only to be followed by a beloved fan. A couple stumbles onto strange, wooden statues in the middle of the woods. Three white statues appear throughout the world, soon wells appear in each sets middle, and a teacher finds out what's below or above. A castaway is saved by a schooner, but where it's going, he can't possibly imagine. Doorways appear after eye surgery, what and where they reveal is maddening. A stage magician finally reaches the other side, but leaves behind more than he wishes. The storm comes, the rain pours, but doesn't stop. A new roommate who sleeps during the day, up and gone all night, and a curiosity that leads the protagonist to discover that he isn't what or who he believes. "This collection of stories comes chock-full of psychological weirdness as well as gritty detailed creature horror, a combination I personally enjoy. The gore is strong but not too extreme. The oddity is as extant as it ought be in any proper entry of the Weird Fiction genre." - Jordan Anderson, author of For A Glimpse Beyond the Terminus. "Reading The Abyss Beyond the Reflection reminded me of how much fun horror and weird fiction can be. The way everything is described brought the stories to life and every character showed amazing depth. Micah Castle's writing demonstrates that he has a strong passion for his craft and if you love horror fiction you won't want to pass this book up." - David Watson, The All Night Library "A great collection of stories. The ones that didn't really grab so much me were easily outweighed by the ones that did. Micah Castle obviously has a great love of the Lovecraft tale but manages to put his own contemporary twists on the classic ideas. This is highly recommended for fans of the aforementioned Howard, and those fans of weird stories in general." - Morgan Tanner, short story author This item is printed on demand.
