Summary:

A collection of four chilling novels, ingeniously wrought gems of terror from the brilliantly imaginative, #1 NY Times bestselling writer of The Fireman, Joe Hill.

‘One of America’s finest horror authors’ (Period newspaper), Joe Hill continues to be hailed among famous talents such as for example Peter Straub, Neil Gaiman, and Jonathan Letham. In Strange Weather conditions, this ‘powerful chronicler of human nature’s continual war between good and bad,’ (Providence Journal-Bulletin) who ‘pushes genre conventions to about Strange Weather conditions: Four Novellas new extremes’ (NY Times Publication Review) deftly expose the darkness that lies just beneath the top of everyday life.

‘Snapshot,’ performed by Wil Wheaton, may be the disturbing story of a Silicon Valley adolescent who discovers himself threatened by ‘The Phoenician,’ a tattooed thug who possesses a Polaroid Quick Camcorder that erases thoughts, snap by snap.

A man takes to the skies to see his first parachute jump . and winds up a castaway with an impossibly solid cloud, a Prospero’s island of roiling vapor that appears animated by a mind of its own in ‘Aloft,’ performed by Dennis Boutsikaris.

On a seemingly ordinary day in Boulder, Colorado, the clouds open up within a downpour of nails-splinters of bright crystal that shred your skin of anyone not safely under cover. ‘Rain,’ performed by Kate Mulgrew, explores this escalating apocalyptic event, as the deluge of fingernails spreads out across the country and all over the world.

In ‘Loaded,’ performed by Stephen Lang, a shopping mall security guard in a coastal Florida town courageously halts a mass taking and becomes a hero to the present day gun rights movement. But beneath the glare of the spotlights, his story begins to unravel, taking his sanity with it. When an out-of-control summer months blaze approaches the town, he will reach for the gun once again and attempt one last day of reckoning.

With an afterword from Joe Hill, examine by the writer.

Masterfully exploring classic literary themes through the prism from the supernatural, Strange Weather is a stellar collection from an artist who’s ‘quite this is the finest horror author of our generation’ (Michael Kortya).
