Languages : en
Pages : 339
Book Description
Had your rabies shots yet? The rats are loose! Twenty-four 'rat' themed short stories, and the first book in a three-book collection, The Creature Tales. Many of the stories here are traditional blood and gore filled horror, but several venture slightly into the realms of science fiction and the supernatural. Within this collection, the reader will find every rat incarnation imaginable, from the super strong and ultra intelligent to bloodthirsty and seemingly immortal. While every story has been written to stand alone, several are loosely inter-connected with an ongoing reference to the future. Among the stories are: A farmer's imaginative though barbaric attempt to solve his rat problem backfires in the worst possible way. A young boy's efforts to repay the kindness of his childhood rodent friends has consequences that will change the course of history. A vicious ghostly rat falls victim to karma. A centuries-old rat looks back on how it became the seemingly immortal creature it is. Some escaped convicts realise too late they've chosen the wrong couple to terrorise when their rodent pets see their own comfy lives threatened. A grim fate awaits those who take shelter in an abandoned house. A country squire finds himself on the receiving end of his sporting cruelty. These are just some of the stories in this extensive collection, so brace yourselves for ... A Mischief of Little Horrors. *A further two books in this three-book collection, Canine Tales and Six, Eight & Many Legged Tales, are scheduled for early 2019 ...
