Review: Enjoyable Short Story Compilation and Perfect for Your Lunch Break
Rating: 5 out of 5

I have read a lot of Joshua Scribner's short stories, and have enjoyed many of them.  In previous reviews, I have said he must have a sick and twisted mind which for a horror writer is a good thing as it keeps your content fresh.  Morbid-sounding, I agree; if you think about it for a while, you will find it is the right context.This is a nice compilation to read during your lunch break at work (which is what I did), and the three stories take about 5-10 minutes each to read.  They are not horror stories per se, but they do have some of the elements as well as shadings of Stephen King.  What I like about Scribner's stories is he doesn't waste any time and gets you involved fast in the underlying story - he gets to the point, tells the tale, and brings home the conclusion.  As I type this review, the Kindle version s being offered for free - grab it now before it has a price on it (even then, it would be worth a buck or two).  I'm looking forward to reading more from Scribner.
