11 bizarre short stories from the author of The Hobbsburg Horror and The Last Hellfighter ranging from Cronenberg themed body-horror to John Carpenter inspired dark science fiction.

Stories include:

A UFO crashes on a family farm setting in motion events that will lead to tragic results.

Happiness


A peculiar salesman comes to Happiness, Texas with nothing but an scarlet suit and a briefcase, and the ability to resurrect the dead…but his services come at a cost.

The Abigail


A crack-whip special tactics squad investigates a supposedly derelict spaceship only to find that some things are better left alone.

Ultrasound


Soon-to-be parents face their worst nightmare come true.

The Witch of Staunton County


Zealots find that sometimes truth is stranger than fiction.

Marrow


A homeless man is introduced to a secret Order with curious appetites.

The Ascension of Henry Porter


With a prognosis grim as his, Henry will do whatever it takes to cheat death…but as the saying goes, there are worst things than dying.

Apocalypse Meow


Jill always hated cats. Now weird glowing strays are invading her town.

The Foree Farm Massacre


He came home from war with a curse. Now the towns people will learn just how dangerous he really is.

Beautiful Ugly


Martin wanted nothing but for the world to see him as he truly was. Beautiful. Exotic. To be seen as Martha. But when he attempts the impossible at the promise of a strange doctor, what people see is not him at all, but a monster.

The Philosopher


Even in a nuclear eradicated world populated by mutants, the truth must be heard.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Thomas S. Flowers is an Operation Iraqi Freedom veteran who loves scary movies, BBQ, and coffee. Ever since reading Remarque’s "All Quiet on the Western Front" and Stephen King’s "Salem’s Lot" he has inspired to write deeply disturbing things that relate to both war and horror, from the paranormal to gory zombie infested worlds, to even dabbling in vampiric historical fiction. Readers can expect to find rich characters, realistic historical settings, and mind-altering horror.

Be sure to check out his PLANET of the DEAD series and The Last Hellfighter, both of which have been best-sellers on Amazon's Top 100 lists for Apocalyptic Fiction and African American Horror respectively.

    The author doesn't fail to amaze. He is a great story teller and I just wonder how he writes so much. Good for fans of his work and for new comers alike

    5.0 out of 5 stars A great collection of short stories
    Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2018
    One thing Thomas S Flowers does well is to write a good short story. So when this book was released I knew that I needed to buy it. 11 stories in total, each one completely different, although each one has an element of the real world whether it is someone not happy in their own body, a terminal ill character or just an overpopulation of cats.
    Some of my favourites are mentioned below.
    Ultrasound: A couple use In vitro fertilization to get pregnant but what has she been impregnated with. This is a good opening story, starting out as a regular story and you feel as if you are going through Deborah’s pregnancy. Hints are throughout and you know something is going to happen but true to this author, it is not what you expect.
    Massacre at Foree Farm: Peter had served his country and had come back home after his last tour of Iraq. This had a Hammer feel to it, you know the scenes where the simple village folk chase after the monster with their pitch forks and torches. Whilst not a lot is known how Peter got this condition, I did feel sorry for him. Some great graphic scenes.
    Gone: Danny Jarvis loves the stars and whilst he was watching them, this was his escapism from his family life. When Danny went out that fatal night, his reasoning was a typical 8 years old thoughts. This is a sad story and I would love for the story to carry on.
    The Abigail: Set in space the UA Odysseus comes upon the UCT Abigail a drift, the only thing alerting them to trouble is the distress beacon. But what has happened to the crew. There was an element of suspense throughout this story and as I was reading this I had a feeling of dread. Whilst there is a horror element, it is written as something you see in your peripheral vision, you know something is there but you cannot make out what it is. I loved the ending.
    I cannot leave this review without mentioning the cover, this is probably one of the most weirdest covers I have ever seen and is perfect for this book. When you read one of the stories it is spot on, but I will not tell you which one.
    A great horror read and for lovers of short stories this is one book you need.
