Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 01 8, 2014
Joe Hill is doing more than his fair share at keeping the art of the short story alive and kicking in the 21st century. This latest release, 'Wolverton Station,' just shovels more coal onto the fire.Like all great horror, the majority of this work focuses on the very real darkness that permeates the human condition. Like all great horror, once the otherworldly terrors take center stage, they are terrible indeed. Like all great horror, the monstrosities within this tale mock our human failings even as they reflect them.Joe Hill is on track to have one of the best careers of any writer in the modern age, producing consistently enjoyable and meaningful work. This is a great example of that.
