Dead Before They Fall is an anthology of fully illustrated short spooky stories, but donÕt be fooled by the outwardly beautiful facade. There is something dangerous lurking below the piles of leaves and heaps of snow - and it may not be the type of monster youÕre expecting. Although I promise you there are monsters. The only connection between the stories is through fall, winter and death. Experience the turning of a season as you follow these unfortunate souls through the changing colors of the leaves, the muddy mix of late fall, and into the dead of winter. Though itÕs only through the decayed foliage and melted snow, that a new year can spout. This collection of stories is a fun and spooky take on an unavoidable subject. ItÕs important to remember life only goes on if you open the next chapter, so donÕt forget to turn the page. As the last bit of life fizzles out and the red leaves swirl like small contained fires, my heart races. Seasons change. People drop off and are reborn like the leaves of oak trees.
