LIQUID LIGHTNING, a short story collection from Matthew Atkinson, strikes with ten monstrous thunderbolts of horror, fantasy, quietude, and sin.They say that lightning never strikes the same place twice but some places are just too good to not come back to, which is why more than one story in this collection concerns the eminently collectible Culinpon monsters ("Thunder / Fire," "Golden Opportunity") and several involve demons in some form or another ("−God = Dog," "Facility," "Good for Your Soul," "Loose Changeling," and "Very Risky," maybe). To round out the storm there's a nihilistic fantasy beatdown in "The Pit of Ambition" and some quieter psychological explorations in "Walled In" and "Light Lock."These stories flow, they are jagged, they are crackling contradictions, they are ugly and elegant. Come out from under your tree and get hit with LIQUID LIGHTNING.For clarity, this collection includes these stories:1. "Thunder / Fire"2. "Golden Opportunity"3. "−God = Dog"4. "Facility"5.
