"This collection glows with eerie bits of brilliance. A young woman chases a Rapture that isn't what it seems. A private eye finds Frankenstein's monster working out of a Midtown office building. A troupe of conquistadors discover a shining statue and its fatal embrace. And what shines through each piece is the voice of an author flipping our expectations, beckoning the reader into the light only to leave them in darkness."

Praise & Reviews
"Beware the Light is a captivating and beautifully crafted anthology of short stories. Each story explores our compulsion to pursue what we love, to covet what we cannot have, and our conflicting need to both hide and be seen. We are all creatures clawing our way through the darkness in search of light (hope and freedom). Only to be consumed, not by the things that creep in the night, but the light which we seek. Thought provoking and full of twists. You'll enjoy this book."

"Cheyenne Shaffer’s The Devout touches upon the seen and unseen, and how perceptions can vary based on allowed narrative. The Devil You Don’t Know by D. F. Hunt capitalizes upon the thoughts of humanity and mortality explored by Mary Shelley and H. G. Wells in an enterprising way. Keegan Young’s work, All That Glitters..., explores the depths of human greed, and is reminiscent in style to Nathaniel Hawthorne. Kyle Thompson demonstrates just how easily those who want to believe may be convinced to commit atrocities by those seen as holy in Heretic, Angel, God. Naomi Daniluk manages to channel the feel of many dystopian novels such as The City of Ember and The Giver while exploring what can become of a truly selfish nature in Light Junkie."
