Rate this book
Darkness and Devotion, Brandon Berntson's latest collection features tales of horror, fantasy, and romance, along with his one and only science fiction tale, The Sirens of the Sector. With new tales never before published, Darkness and Devotion introduces worlds where people take love to the extreme . . . and the darkness has a life of its own.

A man professes his love in Marker of Repose by building a shrine to the girl he loves, but the materials in which uses to erect it will have the reader recoiling in horror.

In Mannequin Girl, Daws Newsome is obsessed with the most beautiful woman he's ever seen - made of wood, metal, and plastic.

The city of Gaul harbors the worst of villains. But this underground world isn't for the faint of heart . . . and here, even angels fear to tread.

Kathy Mender's obsessions with the dead drives her to Rose Hill Cemetery in the early hours of a January morning. But when Bobby Farks gets word, proving his devotion gets him far more than he bargained for.

Armageddon is on the rise in The Battle of the Elect, and in The Sirens of the Sector, a future dystopian world holds the key to civilization, where death tastes like candy.

In Donny's Day, demons are literally on the heels of Donny Daniels. But will he ever get the chance to stop running?

Wrapping up the collection is the novelette, The Smoky Dragon, a philosophical, fantasy charged with raw, emotional insight and power.

Horror, fantasy, science fiction, and love woven throughout, Darkness and Devotion is a versatile, well-rounded collection that will have you thinking twice about true love.
