Bottled Spirits & Other Dark Tales

By Adrian Ludens

Thirteen newly collected encounters with darkness from Adrian Ludens, the author of the collections Ant Farm Necropolis and Cobwebs: Tales of Dread and Disquiet.

Margo lives in a society where people remove organs and amputate limbs to celebrate growing older. Her world is shattered when her new boyfriend makes a shocking request in "Reduced to Tears."

The trickster god Iktomi helps, hinders, and terrorizes a pioneer youth who's trying to solve the gruesome murders of a neighboring family in "The Sodbuster and the Spider."

In the weird western novelette "Bottled Spirits," Truman Bonner sets out to rescue his wife, Helena, from ruthless outlaws and personal demons. He and his son, Isaac, face a series of harrowing supernatural ordeals and before the family is reunited, more than one of them may have made a deal with the devil.

These, and ten other macabre stories, wait within.
