The Ugly Mug: and Other Stories

By Darren Todd

With more than forty publications, Darren Todd's short stories have peppered the horror, sci-fi, and literary scene for the last fifteen years. For the first time, several of his previously published works have come together in a single collection, The Ugly Mug, with tales hand-picked by the author and the original story, "The Hounds of Hellville," written just for this volume.

Todd elevates genre short fiction beyond entertainment. Whether it's the titular story of a haunted mug driving the new office hire mad, or a worrisome look at the near future, where the guilty simply hire someone to do their prison time, these stories will challenge as much as engage.

So be ready to worry, to laugh, to cringe, to wonder. To feel the warm tingle of vindication for the wicked while still casting down your eyes for the ill-fated and forgotten. Dive in until the surface grows dim above you, for there's treasure to find.
