Death's Realm

Death's Realm

Jay O'Shea
4.4/5 ( ratings)
There's something that awaits you on the road ahead, lurking in the darkness at the intersection between the Here and the Hereafter.

It's at the crossroads of this existence and the next, where the forces of the Living and the Dead converge in a terrifying place known as Death's Realm. And it's here where armies from either side of the veil wage an everlasting battle in the struggle for control.

This is a volume containing sixteen stories of those wars by award-winning modern masters of the horror and speculative fiction genres.
