"If Michael Herr, David Morrell and Robert Stone wrote a book together, this would be it. 'The Pressure of Darkness' is a tremendous novel that works on every level."

Featuring BEHOLD THE CHILD by Harry Shannon


"Dead and Gone is a cool throwback to those delightfully over the top horror movies of the 80's when there were as many laughs as there were scares. (Shannon) also sneaks in some sharp insights into human nature and some of his own personal philosophies. But don't let that worry you. He's much more interested in giving his readers a roller coaster ride than any sort of morality play."
-Mark Sieber, Horror Drive-Inn

Rocker/comedian Kyle Gass appeared on 'Without Your Head" on June 27th to discuss his career, his role in "Dead and Gone" and course

The anthology also features Thomas F. Monteleone, Tim Waggoner, Scott Nicholson and Michael Oliveri.

Booklist writes, "Each story features high-quality characterization and plotting. All are so well attuned to the theme that the book reads more seamlessly than many novels."

And from Library Journal: "This eerie collection includes five chilling tales with a common motif, a deserted highway with a ruined gas station where an old black man gives a traveler a special gift that could change his or her destiny. From Thomas F. Monteleone's story of a reporter's collision with the truth ("The Prime Time of Spenser Golding") to Harry Shannon's depiction of a detective's journey into darkness ("Behold the Child"), these tales delve into the realm of nightmare and wish fulfillment."

Okay, I don't know about anyone else, but I've actually had a few dreams come true, and I'm often amazed by how flat and anti-climactic an experience that can be. Yet when I found myself on a movie set in Angeles Crest Forest, staring at a decrepit redwood cabin dressed exactly like the one I'd first imagine almost a year before, I couldn't help but feel a little chill.
