    About this ebook

    At first, I thought it was a dead chick: one of those barely feathered near-foetuses you stumble across every now and then while out walking in the woods. I wondered how it had got there: in the attic, on top of a pile of newspaper clippings, themselves stacked upon a small tower of battered suitcases containing my wife’s favourite clothes. Scrutinising the thing (squinting, as if this would somehow make up for the naked 60-watt bulb’s lack of generosity), I was proved wrong. It wasn’t a chick at all. And it wasn’t dead. It was a foetus of sorts, however; I’d got that much right. It was vaguely simian, with the consistency and colouring of regurgitated liquorice. It pulsed and twitched, its tiny, gluey mouth opening and closing, its grimy eyes rolling.

    Michael Sellars

    I was forced to begin writing stories as a child when Liverpool’s libraries struggled to satisfy my appetite for horror, fantasy and science fiction. I have contributed stories to All Hallows, Murky Depths, Nocturne, Fusing Horizons, Morpheus Tales, the Best Tales of the Apocalypse anthology from Permuted Press and the From the Trenches anthology from Carnifex Press. Hyenas is my first novel. Read the Kirkus Review here: http://bit.ly/1KCrS7C I am currently working on my second novel, tentatively entitled A Mouth in the Woods.

      Let us pause today to praise the flu. When I felt the bug sneaking up on me a few days ago, my first response was to do what I always do when sickness creeps in. I refused to believe it. Fever? Chills? Must be my imagination talking. Sore throat, cou
