Eater of Eyes

The grey stone wall to her right rose like a cliff face above her. Birds circled and cawed in the dusk as the baleful yellow sun shone through a haze; they looked like pterodactyls with outstretched, leathery wings. To her left was a pool of water that stretched away into the fog. In the water the dark, burned trunks of logs bobbed--or were they bodies? Dara can't remember Dan, or the murders. Someone is stealing eyes. And there's a monster; it lives in a wooden box. I have been writing science fiction and fantasy stories for many years. My writing has an edge to it. I enjoy exploring the dark and surreal landscapes of the mind. The first two novels in my Legend Of The Crystals series are out (Crystal Warrior and Crystal Origin). Book Three (Crystal Legacy) should be out in 2013. I also have a science fiction short story collection out called Skin Of Giants, a Twilight Parody called How To Keep Sparkly Emo Vampires Off Your Lawn, and a poetry book called She Stands At The Precipice My Lovecraftian horror novelette, Eater Of Eyes, just came out. Thanks for reading! Mike
