Those We Left Behind: And Other Sacrifices
A bedtime story has unspeakable consequences. A walk in the woods introduces a father to his daughter's horrifying new friends. A bit of trash in the shower drain leads to a surreal fight for survival. In this collection that ranges from magical fantasy to blood-spattered horror, Brandon Applegate guides you on a journey through the darkest, most tragic corners of his imagination. From the surface of Mars to the supposed safety of a child's bedroom, his stories will remind you that "it's not a sacrifice if it doesn't hurt."

This was a wonderful short story collection by Brandon Applegate. The stories were a mix of weird, heartfelt, and tense and there was not a single story that wasn't solid in this collection. After putting together an excellent horror anthology in The First Five Minutes of the Apocalypse, my expectations were high for this collection and Mr. Applegate didn't disappoint!
