Darren Todd
The Ugly Mug: and Other Stories
With more than forty publications, Darren Todd’s short stories have peppered the horror, sci-fi, and literary scene for the last fifteen years. For the first time, several of his previously published works have come together in a single collection, The Ugly Mug, with tales hand-picked by the author and the original story, “The Hounds of Hellville,” written just for this volume.Todd elevates genre short fiction beyond entertainment. Whether it’s the titular story of a haunted mug driving the new office hire mad, or a worrisome look at the near future, where the guilty simply hire someone to do their prison time, these stories will challenge as much as engage.
