About the Book

https://youtu.be/PSv9lLcqh5Y
NEXT STOP-UNKNOWN is a compilation of imaginative short stories with the feel and flavor of "The Twilight Zone"... fantastical and disjointed tales, each different from the next. Stories comprise eerie, supernatural and mystical events, science fiction drama, shifting time periods, dark fantasy, gothic horror; even with a bit of romance and a touch humor added into the mix.
The reader is often surprised by the unexpected twist or surprise ending that he or she is faced with, leading them to realize, “I never saw that coming!”
Characters exhibit the same attributes that we all have – to one extent or another. Perhaps more so here: greed, envy, narcissism, egotism, pride, bigotry, arrogance. Some may also exhibit love, friendship, loyalty. How the characters use their traits and desires are the main points that drive each story; but to what end?

Reviews

Rick Pascal's talent for storytelling is reminiscent of some of the great ones. His tales show great variety touching on the otherworldly. His use of irony and twists are a hallmark of many of his endings.
- Irwin Berkowitz, M.D., Author of "Instructions Not Included"
Rick has a flair for the unexpected. His writing style is perfect for this genre, and his ability to add that final twist to his short stories is exceptional. His character development is perfect for a short story as is his plot development leading up to very surprise endings.
- Ray Chuebon
