I first found Randall Peterson on Twitter. The imaginer of MICRO FICTION and writer of short stories that dance on the edge of other dimensions, Peterson is a truly creative mind. Death Train is another, but larger step into his world.The story revolves around two raucous teenagers, Kurt and Jesse. They egg the local bad boy's hot rod one night and end up in the local funeral home escaping the hood's revenge. There they accidentally set the ghostly Death Train in motion. It becomes their task to stop it.What follows is a fast-paced scary adventure laced with humor and very interesting characters indeed, including a pretty girl, a witch, a mobster, a mad scientist, a talking head, an Indian spirit, ghosts and death himself to name a few. I lost sleep because I had to keep reading to find out what happens next. The reader experiences twists and turns that never stop...ever.If you like scary, fun stories, you need to read Death Train.
