John Paul Allen's Dark Blessings is a fistful of bleak fiction that hits harder than a sucker punch to the gut. His stories are a showcase for the weird and the supernatural. Yet, they also open a window into the worst of what humanity is capable. Each tale in this collection is expertly rendered with flawed characters that reflect the world around us, scenarios snatched out of our worst nightmares, and fears that could have easily been lifted from our own scarred subconscious.
