About this ebook
Magical Realism: Toxic Green
The fourth in a series containing two shorts stories (Ashes & The Unwilling Host). They both pack a punch and are short and sweet and to the point.
(Ashes) There is something in the fireplace...
(The Unwilling Host) Not everyone has a deathwish...

A NOTE
Written by Prof. Kurtis J. Faust, editor for The Grimwood Hangman

Current Location: Unknown
Pages Found: Hanging from the corner of a sewer grate.
Of all the stories I’ve come across in my travels, this just so happens to be the first one I've ever heard. The reasons why I have only now included it in my notes? Well, let’s just say that in my earlier years, I was a lot more skeptical; being a young journalist, straight right out of college and ready to tell the world the hard-hitting facts that need to be told about our society in general, you offend forget (as I still do now, forgetting to include minor details that great a more grander picture), that the real stories—the ones that stick with you at least—are always the ones not found Wall Street.
