To envy another life is to invite ruin into your own.
Some people crave love.
Some crave beauty.
Some crave power, immortality, perfection, attention, success, or escape.
And some will destroy everything to possess what someone else already has.
In this haunting anthology from Black Hare Press, thirty dark tales explore the slow, corrosive nature of envy through horror, speculative fiction, dark fantasy, science fiction, and psychological terror.
A lonely outsider longs for another man’s face. Artificial intelligence dreams of becoming human. Ancient magic punishes those who covet power never meant for mortal hands. Perfect homes become dangerous obsessions. Online identities twist into desperate performances. Desire festers into resentment. Admiration decays into ruin.
Each story examines the quiet ache of wanting more—the unbearable weight of comparison, the bitterness of inadequacy, and the devastating consequences of believing happiness belongs to everyone except yourself.
Atmospheric, unsettling, emotional, and deeply human, ENVY reveals how longing can warp identity, poison relationships, and consume the soul from within.
Because envy rarely begins with hatred.
It begins with wanting.
