Literary Horror at its finest.

An enormous metal man has stood in the town for over a thousand years. McNubbin’s job is to climb the 400 steps to the top, and tip freshly deceased bodies into its mouth. The result is a much-needed tonic that is delivered through a tap in the man’s toe and sold to visitors from far and wide. When McNubbin begins to receive the bodies of broken girls, he must step outside of what is expected of him and risk upsetting his comfortable status quo.

Multi-award winning Australian writer, Kaaron Warren, has that perfect knack of making the impossible believable, the horrifying compelling, along with well-written characters who keep me reading. This novella is highly recommended if you are a fan of horror and dark fiction.
