Remnants: A Collection

By Clayton Snyder

Remnants—Clayton Snyder’s first collection of short stories—is a medley of horror and fantasy. In these 14 tales, we see an exorcist who just wants a quiet night and some pickles, a woman who gives birth to her own hate, a man who braves lost worlds in search of his soul mate, and a dragon flying free in the skies above America. This is where the line that divides reality blurs.
