From the dark corners of award-winning horror writer Rob Smales's twisted mind come thirteen tales of murder, terror, ghosts, and ghouls. A boy learns how to be a man in a post-apocalyptic world . . .An old man teaches his grandson to do the right thing, with terrifying results . . .A plane crash leaves a damaged man doing whatever he must to survive . . .This collection of the scary and sublime will burrow into the most disturbed part of your soul, leaving you wondering: what was that noise in the other room?Perhaps it was nothing. Or perhaps it was an echo of darkness.". . . compelling, entertaining and, on occasion, horrific." Frank Errington, CEMETERY DANCE ONLINE"The writing of Rob Smales hits you like a whip cracking against a spine. Your flesh tears with each whack, yet you keep asking for more, and no matter how bloody and painful the night becomes, you pray it never ends." Max Booth III, author of HOW TO SUCCESSFULLY KIDNAP STRANGERS"Reading Rob Smales' collection ECHOES OF DARKNESS is a lot like munching on barbeque potato chips-once you've dived into the first story, it's almost impossible not to keep reading until the end. Smales has a refreshing, clean prose style that is accessible and engaging. In particular, I recommend this book to readers who are new to the genre as Smales comes up with some nifty and clever riffs on some traditional horror tropes." Bram Stoker Award nominee Hal Bodner, author of THE TROUBLE WITH HAIRY and BITE CLUB
