REVIEWS:
"The stories in SPLATTERLANDS reinvent splatterpunk by adding the thing it once lacked…meat. Pun intended. These are well written works with interesting characters and PLOTS. A few were tough for me to get through because of the subject matter, but the writing itself kept me reading, even when I wanted to turn my head away in horror." – HORROR NEWS NETWORK
"Screams terror in degrees you've never thought you'd read in print; at least not in a single anthology! These stories take you to the very precipice of your comfort level and without mercy, push you over the edge. For those who love horror most extreme; say in the vein of Jack Ketchum or Edward Lee, by all means, don't pass this collection by! It will satisfy your taste most twisted and quench your thirst most bloody." – HELLNOTES
"Grey Matter Press delivers with a delightfully disturbing anthology that will render you speechless. I can honestly say as a fan of horror for some thirty plus years I have never read anything quite like this anthology and regret not a moment of it. SPLATTERLANDS manages to not only resurrect the dying art form of short story telling but packs a powerful wallop unto a brand new generation of fans. Grey Matter Press has become my latest go-to for creepy all-out horror." – HORROR NEWS

OMINOUS REALITIES:
The Anthology of Dark Speculative Horrors
OMINOUS REALITIES: The Anthology of Dark Speculative Horrors is a collection of sixteen terrifying short tales of chilling science fiction, dark fantasy and speculative horror that takes you on a dark journey through the past, present and future.
This frightening journey isn't restricted by the banal concepts of time or gravitational pull. Instead, prepare to travel through an ever-darkening procession of horrifying alternate realities where you'll explore shocking post-Apocalyptic worlds, become enslaved by greedy mutli-national corporations that control every aspect of life, participate in societies where humanity is forced to consider perilous decisions about its own survival, experience the effects of an actual Hell on Earth and discover the many other disturbing possibilities that may be in store for our future.
OMINOUS REALITIES: The Anthology of Dark Speculative Horrors is a harbinger for our time, a heart-pounding collection of terrifying speculative scenarios that portend exceedingly dire consequences for the continued existence of mankind.
OMINOUS REALITIES: The Anthology of Dark Speculative Horrors is edited by Bram Stoker Award®-nominated editors Anthony Rivera and Sharon Lawson.

REVIEWS:
"OMINOUS REALITIES boasts a formidable array of talented writers. The diversity of voice, style and prose is extraordinary and truly has something for everyone. I can honestly state that OMINOUS REALITIES stands on its own in terms of appeal, allure and integrity. Each author preys upon the subconscious forever moulding and sculpting our primal fears of the unknown. A spectacular edition." – HORROR NEWS
"This anthology brings together two of my great loves: science fiction and horror, with some speculative fiction thrown in for good measure. This is what happens if the works of Ray Bradbury, Isaac Asimov, H.P. Lovecraft, and Stephen King consummated and had a baby. Another hit for Grey Matter Press. It's got a little bit of everything for everybody within its pages." – HORROR NEWS NETWORK
"Grey Matter Press has done a phenomenal job with OMINOUS REALITIES. They are putting out some of the best anthologies in the genre. There is enough variety here to ensure that you will find something to enjoy and may introduce you to some new and extremely talented authors. This is a must-purchase anthology for any dark fiction fan!" – THE HORROR BOOKSHELF
