Publisher's Synopsis
A loving father undergoes a beastly transformation in Jen Corrigan's "Ursa Major." A man losing his sight discovers vibrant new senses while grieving a lost child who's growing fuzzy around the edges in Chris Panatier's "Angels of Purgatory." Mike Tyson takes to the sky in a hot air balloon crafted from cured spiders silks in Amanda Chiado's "I Need That Ride." Watchful owls gathered in groups of three serve as otherworldly harbingers in Donna L. Greenwood's "The Night of the Last Dreams." A bull elk watches his snowbound herd starve and freeze in a grisly circle of life and death in Andrew Bourelle's "Season in the Boneyard." And that's just scratching the surface.
