Excerpt
"When Angels Fall" ~ Harmony had just turned seven months old and was crawling all over the place. Lisa had come to the conclusion to get a gate or two to keep her from the other rooms. It was a rainy night and the wind whipped around. Lisa put the baby in her car seat to go shopping. She pulled out of the driveway and started her trip. The nearest store that had what she needed was thirty miles away. Driving the curves at night and in the rain was not her idea of a good time, but she had enough confidence in herself to be safe. The radio was on and Lisa was singing when she saw the lights in her rear view mirror.
“Wow, someone else is as crazy as I am.”
The lights quickly moved up closer to her car and the brightness was blinding. She felt a jolt and fought to keep the car on the road. Blue and red flashing lights could be seen and she felt a little comfort knowing that it was a police officer and maybe he just slid into her.
“Hi baby, it’s your loving man.” Was heard from the loud speaker of the police car.
Professional Reviews
A Blessing Indeed
The thirty plus authors who have given up their stake in the book have written stories, poems and flash fiction that will wrench your very heart out of your chest, put tears in your eyes and make you look at life in ways you never have before. While the book is titled Blessings from the Darkness- it is not all horror stories. There are stories of everyday experiences, thoughts, wishes (some that do not turn out so well) and emotions.
"When Angels Fall" will have you weeping as you turn each page and read each line, "The Third Wish" will make one think twice before wanting to deal with a Genie, "Death of a Parent" will cause you to weep. These are just a few of the wonderful writings by up and coming authors and writers who have never been published before- but you need to keep on your radar. This is a book that you will want to add to your library and to read over and over again.
A great book with Diverse stories
Wonderful stories by Multi talented and first time authors.
From scary stories to poems,something for everyone.Great work authors.
Chills and thrills!
This is a really creepy collection of horror stories, some more frightening than others. I bought this book to benefit author Yvonne Mason's ill son and to help the family; seeing it was put together by Nicholas Grabowsky made the choice easier. This is a five-star collection in many ways. I must add that the majority were excellent quality and scarier than H***... I love horror so being scared is fun for me.
Blessings from the Darkness, indeed! Thanks to all the contributing writers for making this happen.
The ancient kings of Whitehawk were all too aware of the temptation of magic. They could feel its threat, a presence in their courts, a serpent slithering at their feet, even entering into their beds.
