"A round up worth reading"
I'm always wary of any collection of stories. Usually you get couple good ones, a couple mediocre ones and the rest is largely forgettable if not just plain crap. This anthology breaks that mold by having quality throughout. From the first spell-binding tale by Brian Hodge of a man who just won't die, to the last by Robert Devereaux of sexual insatiability, these stories keep you wanting ...

A-class storytelling all around
This has got to be one of the best written and put together anthologies in a long time. There's an amazing roster of writers in here, as well, so there's something for everyone. On top of that, it's one of those books that is so well-designed, your just happy to read it. Love the design. Highlights include Brian Keen, Mort Castle, Elizabeth Massie, John Everson, Cody Goodfellow and Gary ...

One Hell of a Ride
I've been a Hodge fan for a lot of years, and I was so excited to finally get a new novel by this talented and criminally overlooked author. Hodge started out writing very dark horror novels, but with Wild Horses he proved into the crime genre, proving he could handle it equally as well, not to mention loads of humor. I devoured his newest, Mad Dogs, while also trying to stretch it out so I ...

Building Your Straw Bale Home (Landlinks Press)

CSIRO Publishing, 2006

From foundations to the roof
A practical how-to book which not only covers the construction of straw bale walls, but has comprehensive sections on regulations, site selection and preparation, flooring, window and door installation, electrical and plumbing installation, ceilings, roofs, rendering, etc. Not a book for those wanting pretty pictures, but it has detailed information that allows the novice owner-builder to ...

Pinnacle, 1988

Best post-Apocalyptic novel EVER.
If you liked "The Stand", "Lucifer's Hammer", "Swan Song", "Black Sun", or any other after-the-world-ends novella, you will LOVE "Dark Advent". without going into too much spoiler details, this book does a very admirable and believable job of covering the Apocalypse and what happens to the few unlucky survivors of the End. Hodge does a magnifient job with the characters in this book. I found ...

Under the Fang (The Horror Writers of America Present)

6 reviews

Pocket, 1991

It's the end of the world as we know it?.
Under the Fang presents 17 stories that, while all separate and unique, take place in the same world, a world where vampires have taken over the globe. What happens when humans have little place in the world except to be cattle? Some of the stories are presented from the point of view of the now victorious vampires, many more are from the point of view of humans. Most are very well written with ...

Cemetery Dance Publications, 2006

Terrific dark entries
These twenty-two all new short stories contributed by members of the Horror Writers Association lives up to the title as these well written tales showcase the DARK ARTS. The compilation contains new stories that somewhat capture the genre's range, but most are some form of psychological terror that can be summed up from a quote in Lorelei Shannon's Kodechrome: "When you photograph a road ...

DEAD CAT'S BOUNCING YET AGAIN!
Dead Cat's Traveling Circus of Wonders and Miracle Medicine Show...And if you think the title is a mouthful, just wait until you see some of the story titles! I didn't have the pleasure of reading Dead Cats Bouncing so this is my intro, and what an intro it is! Take some of the finest horror writers around, both newcomers and established talents, and have them pen their stories about a rather ...

Road To Hell

Necro Pubns, 1999

Not taking the easy path
It was a pleasure to read a book with the depth of characters and story that Road To Hell gives. Having read the first book (The Beast That Was Max) I couldn't wait to see what other trouble Max and the girls would get in and what it would cost for them to get out. Houarner delivers in a book full of action and tension that doesn't take the easy path--everything has a cost in real life and in his ...
