Summary
From the author of Audible #1 bestsellers In The Darkness, That's Where I'll Know You, The Physics of the Dead, and The Stone Man - shortlisted for the Audible Audiobook of the Year award 2015 - comes this special omnibus edition collecting three of Luke Smitherd's weirdest, darkest tales: “Hold On Until Your Fingers Break”, “The Man On Table Ten”, and “My Name Is Mister Grief”, plus exclusive bonus story "The Crash", unavailable anywhere else!
“My Name Is Mister Grief”. What if you could get rid of your pain immediately? What price would you be prepared to pay?
“Hold On Until Your Fingers Break”. A hangover, a forgotten night out, old men screaming in the street, and a mystery with a terrible, terrible answer...
“The Man On Table Ten”. He has a story to tell you. One that he has kept secret for decades. But now, the man on table ten can take no more, and the knowledge - as well as the burden - is now yours.
Exclusive story, “The Crash”. If you put a dent in someone's car, the consequences can be far greater - and more strange - than you expect.

It's dark it's weird it's great!
simply a thought provoking collection of stories that every reader could relate to. We've all seen, read and thought about what if, I wonder why and even for the superspicious amongst us who bargain with their subconscious ( I'll do this if this happens) the author is being compared with King and Herbert, don't!
Luke Smitherd has brought people's ids, subconscious, daydreams and fantasies to print (or spoken word) and given them reality!
Scary analytical stuff

Weird, dark and left wanting more.
Astonishing story. Real characters in bazaar yet believable scenarios. Stories that not only make you think but also make you want more and more.
I'm gonna have to let this one sink in a bit before even considering my next book.
That was utterly outstanding. I've got chills.

Fantastic.
I can only liken this to the British series 'Black Mirror'. 4 stories, all weird. Great reading by the author.

Thought provoking and thoroughly enjoyable.
Exciting stories that make you think about the theme long after you've finished. As always Luke weaves a story that you believe and characters that have depth - a great talent when writing short stories. Thoroughly enjoyed each story, especially Mr Grief! Highly recommend!

The usual top drawer stuff from Luke Smitherd
Great collection of stories. Would have loved them to be longer. Great author. Most unpredictable books I've ever read.

Weird but wonderful. Dark but delightful!
Where does WEIRD. DARK. rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I've listened to a lot of Luke's book now and while he has a very defined style, there is no 'samyness' about them. He has an incredible imagination and weaves great tales.
