Evil Never Sleeps: Tales of Light and Darkness

Evil Never Sleeps is a stunning collection of chilling tales, portraying dark, nightmarish scenarios, blending fact and fiction, myth and history, magic and mystery. Fleming’s writing is a bizarre mix of Kobo Abe, Edgar Allan Poe, Lovecraft, Joyce Carol Oates, Baldwin, and Ray Bradbury. Writing at a grotesque, bewitching tilt, Fleming bares the soul and psyche of his characters, and he spares us nothing. The stories collected here are riveting and haunting.

“If the late jazz legend Sun Ra wrote a book of fiction, it would be like this–ingenious, way-out, probing, daring, mind-altering, leading-edge. Robert Fleming is all refined sensibilities and grim bravado. His abilities and narratives exhilarate and frighten me. They freak me out. They turn me on. They make me ask deep questions. This cat is so baaad!” —Colin Channer, author of Waiting in Vain

“A compelling collection of unsettling tales, evil as a butterfly knife to the throat. Fleming’s daring visions resonate long after you’ve turned the final page.” —Brandon Massey, author of Dark Corner
