Among Prey – Alan Ryker

  Character development, character development, character development. What Ryker is able to do in only 65 pages, most authors can’t accomplish in 265 pages. Among Prey is told from multiple character’s POV and you’d think that it would be distracting to the story. Au contraire, it adds richness and depth here, another testament to Ryker’sContinue reading “Among Prey – Alan Ryker”

A Shrill Keening – Ronald Malfi

  My first forray into Malfi, outside of a short story or two, and what an excellent choice to start with.

At night, he starts dreaming of leaving for the hospital toContinue reading “A Shrill Keening – Ronald Malfi”

The Hallow – Keith Deininger

  I purposely waited a couple of days to review Keith Deininger’s The Hallow. I wanted what I had just read to sink in; to chew on it and roll it around. The Hallow is a trippy, drug-induced journey into the life of James after his car breaks down and he has to resort toContinue reading “The Hallow – Keith Deininger”
