Fever Dreams: Horror Short Stories

The sixth volume in the ABC of Horror, a non-themed series of original stories, showcasing the very best short fiction the genre has to offer, and edited by Mark Morris. "It''s a rich, diverse and satisfying collection of yarns." "Fever Dreams delivers a number of punches and doesn’t try to soften their blows. As Mark himself points out in the intro, there’s a multiculturalism to the volume and the stories are as wide-reaching as they are ubiquitous in their fears."

Praise for the series:

"This rich and masterful collection of horror highlights both up-and-coming and established authors in an interesting twist on the standard anthology [...] Highly recommended for longstanding horror fans and those readers who may not think horror is for them. There is something for everyone in this one."

Each tale had a very distinct voice, with a superb variety that perfectly illustrates what a broad church the genre covers. I had a blast reading this book. It really has reinvigorated my interest in the horror genre.” — Stephen Bacon, author & critic

“I''m impressed with the imagination and variety coming from the writers. Beyond the Veil, from Flame Tree Press, is another happy clump of ickiness...and I mean that in a good way.” — The Happy Horror Writer
