BLACK BUTTERFLIES:
A FLOCK ON THE DARK SIDE

The Award-Winning Collection
Now available everywhere in paperback

Some nightmares are strangely sweet;
unnaturally appealing.
Some dark places gleam like onyx.
In the twilight,
black butterflies glimmer like forbidden jewels--
like the stories in John Shirley's
Black Butterflies: A Flock on the Dark Side.

"As demonstrated by this bold and innovative short story collection, few writers -- if any -- handle SF, dark fantasy and psychological horror alike with as much panche as Shirley. But there's depth beneath the scintillating surface, as Shirley plumbs not just the minds but also the souls of those who walk on the wild side."
