The Devil's Hymn
Description
I heard it again, whistling through the wind?the Devil's hymn. Death's sweet serenade beckoned me to spill innocent blood. I obliged, thinking my sacrifice would deafen its pleas.
If you listen close enough you can hear death's angel calling, beckoning you to partake of your desires. Just a taste, it whispers?under the sullen moon, between silk sheets, and even while hovering over your ex's carcass. Are you listening?
The Devil's Hymn, the second book in The Devil's Reign series, is a collection of short crime and horror stories. The collection includes 72 stories (drabble, flash fiction, short stories) spilled across time's map, asking you one important question.
How long are you willing to dance with the Devil?
