I've enjoyed reading Evans Light's short stories, with "Don't Need No Water" ranking right up there withCRAWLSPACEas my favorite.Be warned that this is definitely a horror story and not meant for anyone with a weak stomach. If the words Molotov cocktails and duct tape and chainsaw dentistry kind of tweak your gag reflex, this might not be the story for you."Ivy" Iverson and his boys (friend and kinfolk) head their meth-addled selves into Barkersville to avenge the violation and death of Ivy's girlfriend, Sissy, at the hands of the local sheriff and other town notables.What follows is a night of horror and a killer ending.The story was just the right length, filled with colorful, well-drawn characters and blazing word pictures.
