Map to Desire: An Anthology

Map to Desire will entice and disturb your innermost erotic appetites. It will viciously twist and taunt your imagination. And it will tug and gnaw at your tethers for adventure. This anthology includes nine short stories from a diverse group of talented authors who span the globe, an introduction from Black Quill Editing and a closing poem from a young and upcoming writer. WARNING: THIS IS AN EXTREME AND GRAPHIC NOVEL; you will not close this book unscathed. Each story includes a map leading characters to their deepest desires, good or bad. Go on a gondola ride into the underworld to initiate a trade of life and death with the keeper of Hades. Survive a plane crash only to gear up for battle in the dense, dark forestry of the Smoky Mountains. Meet up with a jaded bank employee who harbors an obsession with death. Join a treasure hunt in an old, abandoned mine that holds an entity of fear known only in the most malevolent of nightmares. Work alongside two necromancers as they journey into a life of greed, lust, immortality, and sin. Venture into secret stone ruins to search for a true love that reveals its true, insidious self. Enter an apartment building with hidden peepholes into the residents' lives and the wicked, sinister past of the building itself. Meet a priest as he realizes his baptismal rite and takes the unholiest of communions to bring mankind to its knees. Finally, an alien vampire inhabits the body of a handsome college student to feed off fleshy freshmen while he searches for his ideal mate; night school was never this terrifying.
