The universe is a weird place, and it's about to get a whole lot weirder. A warehouse worker takes an impromptu trip throughout the multiverse. A sidekick plans revenge against the supervillain that took his hero away from him. A woman falls in love with a seventy-five-foot-tall cosmic giant. You'll find all this in Infinite Zero along with ghosts of dead presidents, eighties video game competitions, secret children's festivals, and roller derby jams against possessed wildlife. Come along for the ride as Daniel Aegan presents nine short stories in the realm of science fiction, cosmic horror, villainpunk, dark fantasy, romantic comedy, and more. What happens when a superstore employee invites his cult to summon a demon during its grand opening? Can one man battle aliens and the ghosts of his imagination while riding above the atmosphere in the world's most powerful superweapon? And why would a supervillain choose to give up villainy to run an island resort? Get the answer to these questions and those you didn't think to ask in Infinite An Anthology.
Daniel Aegan lives a private life in New Haven, Connecticut with his family. Other than writing, he practices reading tarot cards. He's a dark humorist who writes with a twist of fantasy, sci-fi, or horror. His first self-published book is Blood Drive, and there are many more coming. (source: Amazon.com)
This is a great, fun anthology of quirky stories that will leave you laughing, crying and blinking in disbelief. Written in Daniel's exquisite style and prose, you might just find yourself turning the pages, wanting to jump from one unreal story to the other. A perfect little box of fun, twisted and sometimes dark chocolates, ideal for summer poolside reads when you just want to relax your brain, or for cozy winter nights when the world is bleak and you need a good laugh.
