This was a solid, unsettling, and endlessly fascinating collection of horror stories. Throughout, Hernandez showcases his creative range, keen sense for the uncanny, and a wicked sense of humor in even the bleakest situations. Some stand outs for me included From The Red Dirt a horror tale with an unexpectedly positive twist, The Return of the Champion a compulsively readable story about the terrors of space travel, and Family Annihilator one of the most upsetting yet fascinating home invasion stories I've ever read. This collection was a great introduction to this author for me and I will definitely be picking up other works of his in the future.
