In acclaimed author Steve Berman's second collection of thirteen stories and essays, he again guides readers through the darker pathways of his imagination. These are stories of regret: the scent of loneliness enticing odd children to eat away a fussy caretaker's historic house; a depressed accountant turns to monster hunting; and a young lover's temptation by handsome nursery rhyme. After each tale Berman provides a tangential author note that offers insight into his past trysts as well as his fears and dreams.

Vintage: A Ghost Story

A lonely boy walking along a highway one autumn evening meets the boy of his dreams, a boy who happens to have died decades ago and haunts the road. Awkward crushes, both bitter and sweet, lead him to face youthful dreams and childish fears. With its cast of offbeat friends, antiques, and Ouija boards, Vintage is not your typical romance but does offers readers a memorable blend of dark humor, chills and love. A finalist for the Andre Norton Award and Gaylactic Spectrum Award!

Teen & Young Adult

In Berman's newest collection, the phrase ''you are what you eat'' is taken to heart; these are stories of gay men facing strange appetites as well as the many fears of growing older, getting heavier, becoming discounted meat. An infamous German artist who finds his attempted seduction of a rustic aboard a train going horribly awry; a hired muscle posing for the cover of a homoerotic series of dimestore pulps; and an ailing poet finds the young man who delivers healthy meals to his apartment has less than charitable intentions. Even the ultimate societal taboo, cannibalism, is served to readers of these thirteen tales that range from the weird to the horrific.

<li>It’s a wonder humanity ever survived into the twenty-first century. Even Neanderthals knew to bury the dead beneath stones to prevent corpses from rising. Ancient civilizations feared slain warriors would return from battlefields, medieval physicians worried that bodies would rise from plague pits, many cultures buried the dead at crossroads to prevent the dead from walking. </li> <li>In Zombies: Shambling Through the Ages, editor Steve Berman has collected stories that reveal the threat of revenants and the living dead is far from recent. From the Bronze Age to World War II, this anthology guides us through millennia of thrills, chills, kills, carnage, horror, and havoc wreaked throughout history by the walking dead.</li>
