Praise for Ominous Realities

“This anthology brings together two of my great loves: science fiction and horror, with some speculative fiction thrown in for good measure. This is what happens if the works of Ray Bradbury, Isaac Asimov, H.P. Lovecraft, and Stephen King consummated and had a baby.” – Alicia Banks, Horror News Network

Ominous Realities boasts a formidable array of talented writers. The diversity of voice, style and prose is extraordinary and truly has something for everyone. Ominous Realities stands on its own in terms of appeal, allure and integrity.” – Dave Gammon, Horror News

“Grey Matter Press has done a phenomenal job with Ominous Realities and in my opinion they are putting out some of the best anthologies in the genre. This is a ‘must purchase’ anthology for any dark fiction fan.” – The Horror Bookshelf

 

Proudly presented by Grey Matter Press, the multiple Bram Stoker Award-nominated independent publisher.
