Skidding Into Oblivion
Skidding Into Oblivion | Brian Hodge
5 posts | 1 read | 3 to read
We each inhabit many worlds, often at the same time. From worlds on the inside, to the world on a cosmic scale. Worlds imposed on us, and worlds of our own making. In time, though, all worlds will end. Bear witness: After the death of their grandmother, two cousins return to their familys rural homestead to find a community rotting from the soul outward, and a secret nobody dreamed their matriarch had been keeping. The survivors of the 1929 raid on H.P. Lovecrafts town of Innsmouth hold the key to an anomalous new event in the ocean, if only someone could communicate with them. The ultimate snow day turns into the ultimate nightmare when it just doesnt stop. An extreme metal musician compels his harshest critic to live up to the hyperbole of his trolling. With the last of a generation of grotesquely selfish city fathers on his deathbed, the residents of the town they doomed exercise their right to self-determination one last time. As history repeats itself and the world shivers through a volcanic winter, a group gathers around the shore of a mountain lake to once again invoke the magic that created the worlds most famous monster. With Skidding Into Oblivion, his fifth collection, award-winning author Brian Hodge brings together his most concentrated assortment yet of years best picks and awards finalists, with one thing in common: Its the end of the world as we know it . . . and we dont feel fine at all.

October Roundup part two: Mostly horror in this pile, with the tagged being such a surprise that I‘ve named it the best out of this bunch. Rules for Vanishing was such a quick fun one too. Read a lot this month so I‘m closer to my goodreads goal. #scarathlon #teamStoker 1 point

Definitely one of the better horror anthologies I‘ve read in awhile, especially if you like cosmic horror. #scarathlon #teamStoker 11 points. There is one Halloween short story in this so I don‘t know if it counts or not for the extra points.

This was not a bad reading month at all! I feel like I‘m finally able to dive into a book again 😊

This was my #socksunday pic, but it works today too. It‘s freezing out! It snowed this morning and it‘s been yucky ever since. I‘m wrapping up reading this new collection by one of my fave horror authors while I try to keep warm. Ugh. I hate spring!
