WALLS OF THE DEAD is the first complete tale I have read by this author.  It will not be the last.  Billie Sue Mosiman wields the style of a competent storyteller as she spins a very different kind of haunted-house story.  Intelligent and amusing, the writing is crafted with agility and bejeweled with descriptive language that vividly conveys the action, mood, and characters.  Reminiscent at times of "Ishmael", we are treated to a clever plot about a woman who cannot only speak to animals but to inanimate objects as well.  That familiar saying "If these walls could talk" is explored by the author with depth and ingenuity.  This is a work that will inspire thought beyond the act of reading.  It will make you look at your surroundings differently, perhaps more respectfully.  I liked the premise and the message.  The ending might seem abrupt and leaves room for more, yet does present a satisfying conclusion.  WALLS OF THE DEAD was very entertaining, and the writing impressed me.I received a review copy, and this is my honest opinion.
