Author Steven L. Peck’s critically well-received novella, A Short Stay in Hell, releases today. It’s available in simultaneously released hardcover ($21.95), trade paperback ($11.95), and eBook ($2.99) formats. The audiobook version will be available in April. 

A Short Stay in Hell is the story of ordinary family man, geologist, and Mormon Soren Johansson, who after dying from cancer wakes up in a hell that takes the form of a near-infinite library. Dan Wells, author of I Am Not a Serial Killer, writes: “Profound and disturbing, A Short Stay in Hell is a perfect blend of science fiction, theology, and horror. A terrifying meditation on faith, human nature, and the relentless scope of eternity. It will haunt you, fittingly, for a very, very long time.”
