Sometimes the world grows darker just as it starts to fall apart. Sometimes things fall apart faster than we can know. Sometimes it's the darkness itself that fails -- leaving us to choose whether we can survive whatever stands revealed in the light. And sometimes the darkness is nothing but the fear and desperation in the human heart. Brave the darkness in these tales of a scattered band of suburbanites battling the invasion that brings the world to the brink of madness...an alcoholic writer whose latest book kills him one typed sentence at a time...a lone passenger who discovers the face of evil in the front seat of his taxicab...a shellshocked survivor paying the ultimate price for survival in the world of the living dead...and the mysterious and terrifying Juggler, who brings with him the chilling question "Have You Ever Carried More than You can Hold?" "I finally figured it out. These aren't really horror stories. Adam writes nightmares, and this is a collection of first-quality nightmares, full of disturbing images and dream logic." -- Lawrence Watt-Evans, author of DRAGON WEATHER
