Product Description

From M. J. Konevich comes nine well-crafted short stories straight out the horror genre. The Endless Road opens with The Shades, a terrifying tale about the dangers of modern energy consumption and moves seamlessly into the strange world of Night Paving, where a man with no job soon finds that he is responsible for more than just picking up the highway trash. From there the reader takes a ride on The Elevator, one that only goes down, then steers into a tale that every motorist has wanted to answer--How's My Driving?--before racing into more hair-raising and spine-tingling twists and turns. Each story is written and delivered in such a way as to immediately grab the reader and never let go. The beauty of the short story is the way in which an entire idea can be expressed in a condensed format, and in The Endless Road, the stories and images come at the reader relentlessly.

Buckle up and prepare for the ride of your life in The Endless Road--a trek down a highway of pure terror...

About the Author
M. J. Konevich began his writing career at a young age by scribbling his thoughts into a journal he kept by his bedside after reading the stories of Poe and Lovecraft. Those tiny scraps of dementia eventually led him to begin writing his own short stories, which later developed into his first novels. Today his writing has been featured both on-line and in print, including several short stories and four novel-length books. Additionally, his novel The Woods Around Carter's Lake became a finalist for Best Horror Novel in the EPPIE Awards, 2004. Born in Salem, Massachusetts in the mid-1970's, M. J. found himself in the center of a hotbed of supernatural activity. The town itself is literally crawling with history—from the infamous witch trials of 1692, to the mysterious Cabot House by the waterfront— which planted a seed in M. J.'s mind. Given time, and many, many hours of M. J. reading the masters of horror and the macabre, the seed began to germinate. After an uneventful college career left him struggling to find his place in the world, he turned back to reading and writing for solace and, in them, he discovered a strange new side to himself. A move to New York City followed soon after, and before long, the rejection letters he had been amassing over the years were replaced with acceptances. A return to his roots in Massachusetts sparked a new novel, and a myriad of new ideas. A new phase of life had truly begun—one which M. J. continues to enjoy.
