About this title

Synopsis

Dare to find out?

It always starts small—a broken rule, a selfish impulse, a single step over the line. Harmless, maybe. Justified, even. But boundaries don’t disappear when ignored. They bide their time. And when they strike, they strike deep.

These sixteen stories claw at the mind and tear at the flesh. Rebellion turns rancid, decisions rot into dread, and those who defy fate find themselves stalked by something far worse than guilt. The cost isn’t counted in moments—it’s measured in ruin.
FUCK AROUND AND FIND OUT is a collection of consequences—bloody, brutal, and bone-deep. Some lessons scar the soul. Others leave bodies behind.

Featuring stories by: Nick Roberts, Clay McLeod Chapman, John Durgin, MJ Mars, Gage Greenwood, Steven Pajak, Jay Bower, Leigh Kenny, R.E. Sargent, Megan Stockton, M.L. Rayner, Ben Young, RJ Roles, LM Kaplin, and Lance Dale.

Edited by R.E. Sargent and Steven Pajak.
