Amid the Recesses: A Short Story Collection of Fear explores primal human fear with stories of tragic loss, murder, psychological torment, the afterlife, mental perversion, hidden evils and dark taboo. The short story anthology shows us that the greatest fear is that within ourselves.Amid the recesses, darkness reigns. In "Humansville," a small town in Missouri is visited by an outsider. Fate stirs him into the hands of a most unusual family and evil permits itself to a seat at the table. In "Black and White," a disease that some see as a blessing is instead a curse, opening the dark shroud of our world to things meant to be unseen. "The Eastern Tunnel" brings to question the fate of our simplest actions and the how both violent and subtle the passage of one world to the next may be. "The Horse, The Elephant & The Lion" follows a despairing mother like a thick shadow, wading with her through the tragedy and terror of her dreadful loss. "Chasing Crows" wipes away the oily obscurity of depression to show that hope comes in unlikely forms. "At the Bottom" documents Eddie, buried beneath his guilt manifested and reveals beneath the filth of his pain the truth of his sickness. "Memoirs of Jacob Bright, Ten Days Haunted" submerges us into madness that can only be satiated with timely blood. "Of Love and Death" convulses our spirit with shattered love and loss and exposes how death is no match for true love. "Binky" captures our worst of fears—the threat to a child and how from the maw of darkness can come a warning that changes everything. "Soup" settles unfinished business in the town of Humansville and twists and turns into unexpected and sudden endings. Finally, the macabre "The Widow, I" reanimates vengeance and brings it viciously to the doorstep of a supposed killer. In Amid the Recesses: A Short Story Collection of Fear, spirits bound by the depth of our deepest fears entwine around the finger of terrible fate.

Volume two has 33 historical romances, and volume three has 32 time travel stories. North and South. Brother against brother. When I began researching and studying early American history, I was intrigued by the emotional impact on those left behind. Family members raising arms against each other. Not politics or even the actual battles. In fact, many of the soldiers didn't even know why they were called to war. It was simply what was expected of them. To refuse to fight for their country, a southern man would be shunned by his friends and family. When you read these stories, you'll see that I focus primarily on romantic love and how that was impacted by the hardships of what the country was going through.

Come on a journey - or series of short journeys, to be precise - into a world that will seem familiar, but into situations that probably won't... A young woman wanders the streets despondently; void of course, and void of hope. If you were to see her gazing longingly through the windows of the family homes she passes, you would be forgiven for thinking she had perhaps lost a loved one, or suffered some kind of breakdown. But you wouldn't see her. Because she's dead. Without recollection of ever even living, she seeks satisfaction through some kind of vicarious living; an "eternal spectator" of a sport that only tends to make onlookers depressed. But one day, somebody does see her. And suddenly her world is opened up to allow just one more person in. Luckily for her, it is just this "one" that can help her… Elsewhere, a young boy troubled by hauntings becomes an unwitting pawn in the games of the very parapsychologist brought in to help him, and a mother is re-united with her long-lost child, after the ever-inconvenient barriers of space and time are temporarily suspended. These are indeed, Strange Dominions…   ABOUT THE AUTHOR: David Calvert is an award-winning short-story writer from County Durham, England.His work has previously been published in many topical British magazines, such as Prediction and UFO Magazine.He is currently working on his first novel, "The Uninvited", which he hopes to have completed by the end of the year.
