So you think you know all about superheroes? Those guys in the capes and the lightly starched spandex speedoes. Leaping tall buildings and always getting the girl. You don't know nothing. Join Steve Vernon, Nova Scotia's hardest working horror writer, as he takes you into the world of Captain Nothing. It's a world without hope, a world that is as cold and dark as a landlord's heart, three days after the rent is due. It's a world that could give the Batman a case of the squirming night fears. NOTHING TO LOSE is a collection of stories that will show you the darker side of courage. It will show you the shadows in a hero's heart. Go on. I dare you to take a closer look. You've got nothing to lose. "If Harlan Ellison, Richard Matheson and Robert Bloch had a three-way sex romp in a hot tub, and then a team of scientists came in and filtered out the water and mixed the leftover DNA into a test tube, the resulting genetic experiment would most likely grow up into Steve Vernon." - Bookgasm

Captain Nothing is the greatest anti-hero ever created, and this little anthology of stories is BAR NONE the best in nihilistic, sarcastic, creative storytelling.
Steve Vernon is a force to be reckoned with. His skill is virtually unsurpassed by anyone short of Clive Barker, and his ability to spice up any sentence with a bit of sea faring twang is amazing.
Don't pass this up. It's more than worth the read. You'll be a Steve Vernon fan for life!
