RANDOM

STEP INTO A WORLD WHERE JOY, SORROW, HUMOUR, AND THE SUPERNATURAL COLLIDE

In RANDOM: 25 Short Stories, Rory Gilbert delivers a vibrant collection of tales that capture life's unpredictability, from moments of pure happiness to encounters with darkness and redemption. Each story stands alone yet carries a thread of compassion and hope that binds them together.

Meet unforgettable characters: a weary Grim Reaper who's had enough of his job, a mysterious traveller who rewards kindness with gold, extraterrestrials with human hearts, and ordinary people caught in extraordinary situations. Some stories will warm you, others may chill you, but all will make you feel.

Drawing on his lifelong creativity as a songwriter, Gilbert writes with rhythm, wit, and emotional honesty. His stories explore the vast range of human experience, love, loss, courage, kindness, revenge, mortality, and resilience, with a touch of magic and wonder.

Whether you read one story at a time or dive in cover to cover, this collection will stay with you long after the last page.
