I recently read and greatly enjoyed A Short Stay in Hell, by Steven L Peck. The title is ironic, if you are not familiar with the book. Other short bleak books I've enjoyed include The Bachman Books, of which I have one of the discontinued copies that contains all four of the original novels before Stephen King was persuaded to no longer publish Rage, due to it's supposed inspiration of real life violence. I particularly liked The Long Walk, though I enjoyed all four of them. I would like more like this please.
