D R Gordon’s Debut horror collection “From Darkness” is filled with
monsters. Monsters of the flesh and the mind. You will find ghosts,
demons, and gods of old within these pages; a myriad of fiends born from
Darkness. In the tradition of the grandfathers of short horror fiction
Poe, Lovecraft, Blackwood and Le Fanu D R provides snapshots of the
human mind at its most fiendish, its most terrified, its darkest.
His sharp style takes us from a fifteenth century village, as a witch hunter comes to town, to the grimy back-streets of modern cities, where ladies of the night ply their wares, with the skill and ease of an accomplished wordsmith.
Beware those who enter the world of D R Gordon, you will not come out the same.

My Review:
5 out of 5 stars:
This collection of short horror stories
is well written and will make your skin crawl! Try not to read it in the
dark...or alone...or an empty house. I enjoyed every story, especially
the one about the painter. It reminded me of the Curse of Dorian Gray.
Within this collection you'll be faced with demons, ghouls, vampires and
more. I felt that the author's style was reminiscent of H.P. Lovecraft.
I have a feeling that I'll be thinking about these stories for quite a
while.
