Shroud of Night

Beneath the shroud of night hides the darkness within men's minds, things that slither and creep, classic devils, cemetery angels, and death in all its poetic guises. Take the hand, if you dare, of your zombie guide and traverse the dark places that await within. "In Shroud of Night G.O. Clark's poetry doesn't just chill you with its weirdness; it often goes for a sucker punch right to your gut. This is horror poetry at its best: writing that is deftly morbid, terrifyingly astute, while also being playful in a way that horror fiction just can't touch." - Michael A. Arnzen, Bram Stoker Award winning author of Proverbs for Monsters. "Shroud of Night by G.O. Clark is superb mix of humor and dark imagery, turning innocent words into multi-layered snapshots of hell that I couldn't stop reading. Clark pulls the veil off nightmares, making madness deliciously addictive." - Linda D. Addison, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Being Full of Light, Insubstantial.
