Review: Blood-crusted edge of fear
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 11 8, 2011
Gruesome and horrific yet dripping in realism.  Holding the reader captive at the blood-crusted edge of fear.  Knowing maniacal killers lurk in the dark recesses of every corner, each short story forces the reader to ponder how he/she would respond when held in fear's choking grip while dangling perilously over the edge of reality.  From tribal rituals to serial killings...incest to suicide...vengeance to cannibalism...paranormal to religion, Matthew Tait dives headfirst into all possible realms of our worst nightmares without hesitation.  He does an outstanding job perching the innocent on the ledge while watching it teeter back and forth before sending it over the edge and into the darkness where it will forever remain a ghost in the desert.
