    About this ebook

    Dreads is a novella about a normal woman and her extraordinary experience. The unnamed protagonist is in a modern-day Pittsburgh, living an average, 9-5, normal life. One morning, she wakes up and she follows her routine. On her commute, a crater opens up. As weeks pass by, things get weirder. She finds a part of herself she didn't know existed. The monstrous Dreads break free from their cages and she decides, she can stop them. But what can she do?

    Our hero is just a normal person. Or is she?
