Best Served Cold: an eye for an eye

by Christopher Ficco (Editor), John Rehg (Contributor), Harris Tobias (Contributor)

Sometimes revenge can taste sweet, and sometimes it is most bitter. It can fill the soul to the bursting point or leave it empty and wanting. But no matter how one takes their revenge, it is always best served cold, as cold as the heart it takes to prepare revenge in the first place. “Best Served Cold” is a collection of science-fiction, paranormal and contemporary short fiction where the one who has it coming gets it in the end. This is a smorgasbord of retribution that will tickle, tantalize, slake and even horrify your sense of justice. Within these pages an assassin starts a revolution, the devil himself terrorizes the galaxy, a murderer meets justice in the form of three ancient witches and sexual predators find out what it means to be preyed upon. So whet your appetite and prepare for a collection of short stories that are “Best Served Cold.”

I wrote a story in this collection called Final Swing.

I enjoyed the variety of stories in this collection and the fact that the bad guys always got their just rewards! It's an honor to have a story in the collection, a collaborative effort with author Joe DiBuduo. "The Snow Globe" is also a part of "The Contest," a larger collection of stories inspired by some lesser-known paintings of famous artists.
