Jay Troy Seate has assembled a collection of stories that will appeal to genre readers who enjoy everything from dark fantasy, to the supernatural, to murder mysteries. Within these pages reside: a world without sight, uptown vampires, a tough little bird, a movie world gone terribly wrong, a campfire story, beings in floors and beneath them, a mystical merry-go-round, a haunted cottage, and a myriad of femme fatales and dead bodies thrown in for good measure, all with fascinating tales to tell. The novella, Descent into Darkness, is a story of paranormal love and hate gone awry. In this intimate mystery, the protagonist relates his tale of a man trying desperately to hold onto something that could destroy his sanity, cost him his life and yes, even his soul. Passion, loss, the supernatural, and murder all form parts of the puzzle. Mr. Seate's anthology explores the human condition, and the universal struggle of good and evil within us all, from many angles-creating thirteen thoughtful, varied and highly entertaining worlds of horror, humor and mayhem. Jay Troy Seate has written everything from essays to humor to the macabre. "Mysteries, thrillers and the unexplainable are what I find myself invariably picking up and this is the genre I most enjoy writing, the type of story that stimulates me." His short stories and poems have appeared in numerous magazines, journals and webzines. He has two previously published novels, the suspense thrillers, Chosen, and its sequel, Shanghai is Crying, he is currently working of the third installment of the Swann sage. Mr. Seate currently Troy lives in Golden Colorado. Visit him at his website at www.geocities.com/jtroyseate
