Unhappy Endings

One of modern horror's hottest authors delivers an all-new collection. Brian Keene's Unhappy Endings features an exciting mix of never-before-published stories and hard-to-find fan favorites, ranging from a violent, post-apocalyptic novella to quiet, supernatural human-dramas. Includes "Take The Long Way Home," "Jack's Magic Beans," "Fade To Null," "Tequila's Sunrise," "The Ties That Bind," and many more.

From Publishers Weekly

Two-time Stoker-winner Keene includes 19 stories, many of which were previously only available in limited edition collections or numbered editions of his novels, in his gleefully gory fourth collection. His trademark zombies appear in five tales linked to 2003's The Rising, as well as in œThe Resurrection and the Life, which features an undead Lazarus. When Keene stops relying so heavily on carnage, he pens standouts like œAn Appointment Kept, which concludes with a clever twist, and the powerful, dread-inducing œStone Tears. Fans will especially appreciate œTequila's Sunrise, a fable about the origin of tequila that sneakily touches on all of Keene's creations, and chatty afterwords offering insight into his creative process. Those new to Keene or bored of zombies will find less to love, but any horror reader will get some delightful scares. (June) Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
