5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant short stories, especially the one by....
Well I know one of the authors... so I am biased. But it really is a good, eclectic selection of works, showcasing some of the better side of fiction writing of various genres. I did find the winning story a bit of a surprise though, as I didn't think it was the best one by a long chalk. Never mind, worth a purchase in my opinion.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mirror image by Benjamin Asman review.
I am reviewing the short story: ‘Mirror Image’ page 56, written by the author Benjamin Asman. I have read this book 3 times now and it becomes more REAL each time you read it. A masterful piece that makes me want to see more from the author. This piece of work has a multitude of emotions attached to it; it is dark, disturbing but wrapped in a brilliance that I have only seen before in Stephen kings work. It has all the makings of becoming a short film one day. This book leaves you wanting to read more, and learn more about this characters life and journey. Hopefully one day we will.
