Produktbeschreibung
This book asks the simple question of what if. The answer is expressed in thirteen short stories where ONeal pushes the limits of imaginationfrom a man who wakes up knowing the future date of his death, to a little girls love for her cat that uses each of its nine lives in order to protect her from danger, to an evil ghost of a six-year-old girl trying to return to life by stealing the soul and the body of another six-year-old girl. With the combination of fantasy, the paranormal, ghosts, sci-fi horror, and the unexplained, ONeals characteristic dark humor and savory taste for the macabre and the unknown extends the bounds of the predictable and brings the reader to the brink of sanity and insanity, loneliness and friendship, and into the horrors of human and inhuman existence. Fans of Dean Koonce, Stephen King, Amazing Tales, and The Twilight Zone will thoroughly enjoy this anthology of unique stories that will be sure to leave you breathless. What If commemorates the mysteries of the world and the unexplained that encompasses each of us and articulates how fast time flies. Never forget that time is the most valuable thing we can spend, ONeal says, so spend it wisely and dont throw it away.
Autorenporträt
Kerry ONeal was born in Illinois in 1953, to Italian and Irish parents. His Father was an English/French teacher, owned two dance studios, a concert pianist / teacher, and a dance choreographer. His Mother was his strength, and they both encouraged him to always follow his dream with a glass half full. Kerry did college textbook illustrations for several publishers, illustrations for installation manuals for farm equipment, designed logos and artwork for city buses, and enjoys woodworking. His first published books were childrens stories, I Wish I could Fly, The lonely Caterpillar and its sequel, I Can Fly, The Lonely Butterfly in 2006. They are both available for the Kindle and in paperback at Amazon. Living in Florida since 2004, he started writing short stories, releasing his 1st book of eleven stories called What If-An Anthology of Short Stories almost a year ago. This is the 2nd edition of What If- An Anthology of 13 Short Stories, including two new stories. Each story originates from the same question of the title, but then the similarity ends entering into the realms of ghosts, the paranormal, inspirational, fantasy, sci-fi horror, and the unexplained.
