Chaos Countdown Arrives in Mailbox in Time for New Year
For this one I can do no better than just quote the Amazon blurb:
Prepare for a wild ride as The Alien Buddha’s Chaos Countdowns drops next week—featuring an eclectic mix of horror, mystery, party comedy/adult romcom, sci-fi, and fringe fiction—all set on New Year’s Eve. From painful reflections on relationships that never were, to chaotic nights filled with infidelity, apathy, and self-destruction, these stories will make you laugh, cringe, and gasp.
In these pages…
A ruptured hemorrhoid turns a New Year’s Eve wrestling match into a bloody disaster in 2016.
A group of art school friends on the brink of the new millennium struggle with their boundaryless lives.
A mystical transformation of a disillusioned call center worker into a merman.
A man, overwhelmed by life’s mundanities, contemplates suicide and self-destruction.
A village and its succubus use supernatural rituals to erase people lost in societal disillusionment.
A gruesome midnight ritual where an Englishman is sacrificed in a foreign land.
A chaotic New Year’s Eve in Tijuana where two hapless friends attempt drug smuggling.
A family navigates the simplicity and chaos of life, finding joy in unexpected places.
The surreal journey of a dying child and a mechanical gorilla through a Victorian hospital.
An introverted woman’s quiet New Year’s Eve unravels into a chilling mystery that turns her world upside down.
And much more.
Whether it’s a New Year’s Eve adventure in London, a waiter trying to make sense of illicit desires and eerie encounters, or a sinister embodiment of broken resolutions, The Alien Buddha’s Chaos Countdowns is literary madness!
The book as said, already out now as of December 7, is THE ALIEN BUDDHA’S CHAOS COUNTDOWN via Alien Buddha Press, with my story in it , “Appointment in Time” (see November 20. et al.), the one about the Englishman and the “gruesome midnight ritual,” originally published in YEAR’S END: 14 TALES OF HOLIDAY HORROR (Untreed Reads, 2012). And now arrived here for me to read in time for my own New Years Eve pleasure.
