Publisher's Synopsis
"If your mantra is Bones Are Made to Be Broken, then you can expect suffering and guilt, death and destruction, dark destinies with little hope of survival. But in this powerful collection by Paul Michael Anderson there is also beauty and nostalgia, love and fulfillment, justice and heart. Nothing worth having ever comes easy, as these gothic narratives show us, in all of their horrifying glory."
- Richard Thomas, Breaker and Tribulations
Written Backwards, the multi-award-winning imprint of Dark Regions Press, continues its saga of producing some of the most beautiful books published today with Bones Are Made to Be Broken, a speculative blend of horror, science fiction, and raw unfiltered emotion by Paul Michael Anderson.
14 works of fiction are collected in this tome, including "All That You Leave Behind," "To Touch the Dead," "Love Song for the Rejected," and a title novella written specifically for this collection. Every story is illustrated by Pat R. Steiner, an award-winning illustrator in the long-running Illustrators of the Future contest, and author of Enlarge Your Tentacles Overnight and Wyrd.
"Anderson's style is tensely exciting. This collection is a treasure for any horror or dark SF fan's library."
- Marge Simon, Vectors: A Week in the Death of a Planet
"Paul Michael Anderson writes like no other writer in dark fiction. Simply, he writes a Paul Michael Anderson story--the highest compliment any serious writer can hope to achieve."
- Gene O'Neill, The Cal Wild Chronicles
