Review: Savage, Witty, and Brilliant!
Rating: 5 out of 5

Savage Fire is a collection of sixteen short stories in different or mixed genres. Most of the stories are dark horror with mysteries and a fairy tale among them.The ideas behind the stories are brilliant. The language is direct with a good measure of quips thrown in. For example, in the 5th story, Double Cross, the detective thinks, "She has legs a guy could give up for Lent."Most stories end without a strict closure to keep the reader wondering about the characters and the story. I felt this showed great wit on the part of the author.To sum it up, for a first book this collection is a winner, and I can hardly wait for the next book by this writer.
