At the intersection of this world and others, unimaginable things can happen. With this collection of stories, Leigh Blackmore invites you to voyage with him into urban decay and otherworldly dimensions, to discover paranoia and unknown planes of existence, to experience realms of cosmic alienage, and the fantastic that lies at the heart of the real.These stories of nightmarish events, by turns eerie, haunting, deliriously disturbing, are sure to show you a darkness of your own, a world in which (perversely) you will want to stay immersed rather than awaken. Open the pages of this book and be drawn ineluctably into a labyrinth or sorcery and sex, of bizarre mind games and stranger rituals…a whirlpool of darkness…the world of NIGHTMARE LOGIC.
