The Other Side of the Mountain — Jonathan Maberry

Mountains take many forms, from physical to metaphorical. Sooner or later and more often than not, we all come upon some kind of mountain. Maybe you're an aviator facing an unusual test. Can you see the portal and do you know where it leads? Maybe you're a hiker facing a monstrous decision. Maybe danger erupts during your mining expedition. Did someone say treasure? Are we all just walking each other home? Do you hear singing? Could healing come from facing your biggest fear? What is The Pocket Lips and how do you stop it? The answers to these questions and much more await you within these pages including an incredible, brand-new story by New York Times bestselling author Jonathan Maberry. Come take a walk on The Other Side of the Mountain. We promise you'll return safely...ish.Marquee AuthorJonathan MaberryMeditations of a Drunk Skip Tracer on Boundary Street © 2025Contributing AuthorsJeff Schmoyer, Don't Take Me to Kansas © 2025Derek Lowstuter, A Gift for Words © 2025Johnny Worthen, The Bottom Treasure © 2025Charles F.
