WE PAINT OUR FACES WITH THE ASHES OF OUR DEAD

When an author puts a short story collection together, they are sifting through the ashes in the hope of finding something valuable and breathing new life into things that were dead. Each story takes on new context when brought together, than it had in its original life. The author paints their face with the ashes of the dead, crafting a new facade made from pieces of the old.

This collection includes 13 stories, written and published over the course of more than a decade. Some of them may be familiar, while others may provide a new experience as you lose yourself in these tales of violent revenge, exploration gone horribly wrong, and strange encounters.

Even those you've read before may find a different meaning this time around.

Early Praise for Nikolas P. Robinson

"Nikolas Robinson's work is as sharp as it is dark. He always puts his heart on the page when he writes." - Judith Sonnet, author of OUR SARNATH

"Nikolas Robinson is one of the most fearless writers in extreme horror, penning stories with a maniacal glee that dares the reader to be damned"- John Baltisberger, Madness Heart Press
