the topics the stories cover are raw and the characters brilliantly real. Ranging from Slice of Life to Urban to Sci-Fi, this collection is suggested - no, recommended - for those who like good writing.

Romance readers and chicklit will love it, for the short stories about relationships and the happy-even-after

It is a very good hard sci-fi story and for fans of that genre I'd rate it 5.

A highly interesting slow burn character driven take on the mythology

an accurate portrayal of loss and grief. Literary and slice-of-life fans will love it.

As trashy monster pulp fics go, I'd give this a five. It has screams, it has blood and it has science taking a holiday.

Brilliantly written and engaging, but also a hard depressing read about a very grim and pointless world.

...short, haunting, and mysterious. A good old-school ghost story...

I really enjoyed this book too. Noir, crime, and sci-fi fans should enjoy it a great deal.

The story (what I read of it) was entertaining, and the dilemma is so small-town to be delightful. It just needs an editor very, very, badly.

It is a good strong story, but I am not sure about it's audience.

Moving quickly from suspense to outright horror, and back, this is a creepy and disturbing story.

A great concept and setup, but some issues with writing

Overall, it's a standard horror book, a little trope heavy, but with a reasonable twist at the end.

Definitely aimed at children, you know it is going to be upfront about its influence and sympathies on the first line, when it mentions Judge Scrooge. I was partway in (when his dead partner appeared) before I realised it was going to be a full retelling of a Christmas Carol with cats instead of ghosts. […]

gripping, fast-paced, and action-packed, with a truly international feel
