Twenty-seven speculative short stories celebrating the value of the journey: how lessons learned traveling the path between two points often transcend the goal of reaching the destination. These tales-including science fiction, fantasy, and horror-introduce characters who traverse unusual and often unsettling routes toward their desired objectives.
A man ventures through the depths of his beloved's subconscious to save her, only to discover a deep-rooted secret that could destroy everything. A young girl and a newly found friend travel to the Middle of Nowhere, desperate to find a way Out. A teenager struggles to escape the clutches of a demonic blanket inherited from a deceased family member. An ugly vampire goes
through hell on earth to find his true self and his one true love. A woman revisits her past to determine whether it's time to pull the plug on a scientific experiment that's sustained-and devastated-her family for decades.
Passageways is the second short story collection from author Lisa Fox, following her acclaimed debut Core Truths. In these pages, readers voyage through darkness and light, fear and faith; toward understanding and peace. Sanctuary. Self-awareness. Being heard. Being loved. As speculative literary fiction, the stories in this anthology harmonize the excitement and otherworldly escapism
that genre-based tales offer with the lyrical poeticism of language that makes storytelling sing.
