Eternal damnation sucks, but it’s especially unfair for the clowns. These bumbling fools, whose only living mission was to make people laugh, have been eternally damned for the crimes of mortals perceiving them as creepy over the years.

Even worse, the monoceroid overlords—better known as “unicorns” in folklore—have been enjoying their infernal roles as Satan’s finest torturers. These magnificent creatures are actually rotten bastards, and for some reason, they specifically have it out for the clowns.

The cursed motleys are now seeking equality, perhaps even redemption. But the unicorns are quite content with the hierarchy, and after eons of crushing these jokers underhoof they’ve become overconfident.

An unholy rebellion is brewing. Who will prevail? Who will get a pie in the face?

What do you do when Death comes calling for you? Do you run and hide? Maybe you try to bargain with him? Perhaps you’re ready and you leap into his arms willingly.

And who is Death? What does he like—how does he like his tea, does he really like using a scythe, is Death even gendered?

Death can take many forms, reap many souls. Death is unforgiving; yet can be gentle, almost kind. Death is the Ferryman; the driver of a cart with bones rattling against the road; Death is many things, but most importantly, Death is inevitable.

Find out answers to these questions and more, as authors from all over the world pursue Death in this collection of 100-word stories from Black Ink Fiction. When the Reaperman knocks, what will you do?
