In No Turning Back, Dan Burns shares an eclectic mix of stories that push the boundaries of genre and imagination. Told with realistic and thought-provoking prose, the stories shine light on characters who have come to a crossroad in their life and who realize they can look back, but they must move forward. What comes next is anyone's guess. In Come Out, Wherever You Are, a man retreats to his home in the woods to live out the rest of his life in solitude. He hopes to evade the "public eye" but instead finds himself both a victim and beneficiary of circumstance. At the End of the Day is a story of forbidden and improbable love. After working together for more than five years, a man and woman begin a relationship they never dreamed was possible. In No Turning Back, a young paratrooper--on a flight into enemy territory--gets to think about and face his ultimate fear. The author accompanies each story with his personal notes regarding the thoughts and ideas that inspired him to write the story, adding a unique behind-the-scenes perspective. Chicago artist, Kelly Maryanski, complements each story with an original ink illustration provided exclusively for this collection.
