Wanna see hell? Here you have it, in punishing short stories. It's a balls to the wall kind of collection with some raw humor that you may or may not appreciate. (I did.) The last story left me in a tizzy. My brain was giggling and whelmed over. ...more

A collection of short stories of disturbing tropes
Some of these were good, some ordinary, some made me sit back and think what have I just read.
