Customer Reviews

Quick, excellent reading for busy people

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. Being a busy individual, I rarely have time to sit down and read a whole book. This book is perfect for a quick read when one only has a few moments to indulge. I especially liked the story by Julia Kamysz. I would like to read more of her work.

Great collection of short fiction

This engaging anthology by Pontalba Press combines a wide range of styles, and somehow fits them all into a single engrossing collection. Established authors such as O'Neill De Noux, Charles Hebert, and Lisa McCaffety find themselves alongside some of the brightest new talent I've seen. A must-read for lovers of short fiction, and espacially for those who love southern literature.
