Imagine if you will . . . that Rod Serling penned a lost collection of outdoor stories only recently discovered. For those who have spent time in the remote recesses of our planet—in the margins between light and dark—who hasn’t entered the Twilight Zone a time or two? It’s a place often too bizarre for words, where inexplicable events or impossible conjurings happen that are never shared for fear of losing one’s grasp of reality. That is, never shared until now. Welcome to another dimension . . . welcome to a place where Monsters, Mayhem and Miracles live. —Chris Dorsey, Forbes

Pour yourself a tall glass of “safewater” and settle back in your easy chair, but don’t expect to put down Monsters, Mayhem and Miracles until you’ve read it cover to cover! After you’ve done so, put it where you’ll have handy access, because I know you’re going to want to read it again!
