Need: Horror Stories You Can't Live Without (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798987819562)

We all hunger. We all desire. We all hope. But more than anything, we all NEED. Need can slice our hearts into pieces like a razor blade. When our need isn't met, our souls shrivel into a singular agony. It's all we can think about; pursuing that need is the only thing we can do. In the end, if we need hard enough for long enough, we are extinguished.

This is a book of need. A mother whose children are thirsty, but she has no water, only the blood in her veins. A young man dying for the attention of strangers, for clicks that may never come. A son who will do anything to keep his elderly father alive, even as his flesh decays around him. An addict whose need is killing him over and over, every morning, every day, every night.

With stories culled from over 400 submissions by horror authors around the world, this anthology curated by Ruth Anna Evans features twenty-two super short entries that will leave you aching for more.

You don't want this book. You need it.
