His short stories present a brilliantly dark and audaciously weird realm where cosmic nightmares collide with all-too-human characters and apocalypses of all shapes and sizes loom ominously.

Running through all of Johnson's work is a hallucinatory vision and deeply-felt empathy, earning the author a reputation as one of today's most daring and thrilling writers.Featuring the best of his independently-published short fiction, as well as an exclusive, never-before-published novella "The Sleep of Judges"―where a father's fight against the denizens of a drug den becomes a mind-bending suburban nightmare―Entropy in Bloom is a perfect compendium for avid fans and an ideal entry point for adventurous readers seeking the humor, heartbreak, and terror of JRJ's strange new worlds.Table of Contents:An Introduction by Brian EvensonThe League of ZeroesPersistence HuntingThe OarsmanThe Gravity of Benham FallsDissociative SkillsSnowfallWhen Susurrus StirsLuminaryTrigger VariationCathedral MotherSwimming in the House of the SeaSaturn's GameThe Sharp-Dressed Man at the End of the LineA Flood of HarriersStates of GlassThe Sleep of Judges
