Review: Interesting, lots of potential here.

Adam Cesare, <strong>Bone Meal Broth</strong> (Adam Cesare, 2012)Quick collection of horror shorts, about half previously published. Some interesting ideas, though most require fuller fleshing-out to achieve their true potential (e.g., the <em>noir</em> tale "Pink Tissue", which could stand to be four or five times its current length) and some awkward writing here and there, usually at the end of a story (either it simply cuts off when it seems like there should be more to it, or there's just something vaguely unsatisfactory about the way Cesare ends the tale). These tales could use some work, but Cesare obviously has some talent, and with a bit more work, he'll be doing professional-level stories in the relatively near future. **
