Synopsis of Ten Tales To Make Your Head Explode |
|
Ten Tales To Make Your Head Explode is now available online at PublishAmerica.com, BarnesandNoble.com and Amazon.com. The book was officially released to bookstores on March 30, 2004.
Ten Tales is made up of 10 short stories, basically because Craig has a short MTV-like attention span and cannot deal with writing full-length novels. These stories run the genre gamut, with horror, science fiction, mystery, adventure and romance all being covered.
"Honor Among All of Us" is about an assassin named Rick Winston who is meeting his mentor to tell him he's going to retire. Things do not go as planned. "The Party Crasher" is about a woman who invites her friends, family and new boyfriend to a party that is a celebration of a different sort.
In "Five Points", Detective Stephen Trotter goes to the scene of a horrific multi-car pileup to investigate how the chain reaction began and encounters a key witness who keeps repeating the words 'five points' over and over. "The Dead Zone" places professional baseball player Bobby Sutton in a world where he needs to hit a home run just to stay alive. |

"Win/Win Situation" brings back Rick Winston for round two. This time he comes across a vampire slayer named Shelby Winslow who needs his help in defeating her greatest enemy. "Stain" is about Robyn, a young woman looking to end her life when she bumps into a young man looking to do the same exact thing.
"The Final Censor" is about a successful author who smokes pot like a fiend, drinks like a fish and stays up all hours of the night. But one critic wants to put an end to his career. |

Tag is a hotshot fighter pilot in a future world in "A Team No One Could Beat". Sparks fly when his new partner is a fiery redheaded woman who can shoot as well as Tag can steer.
"A Better Place" is about a couple walking through a mall on the most important day of their lives. And "Credit", the last and longest story of the 10, reunites Rick and Shelby as they investigate a grisly murder that they think might be vampire-related.
