Forty Two: Short Stories

By Richard Weale

The old apothecary coughed a reluctant ball of phlegm into a grimy handkerchief. 'Goddamn spiders, ' he thought. There is a modern myth that everyone swallows on average, nine spiders a year during their sleep. If you had whispered this fearsome statistic to the apothecary he would have laughed. The crackling wheezing laugh of a man with webs on his larynx.

Forty Two is a collection of thought provoking, humorous, and off beat short stories. If you like a mixture of Fantasy, Sci Fi, and Twilight Zone, then you'll love Richard Weale's modern fables with a twist.
