I've been a huge fan of surreal suspense stories since I was a kid - all that's changed is that now I don't have to sleep with the light on after I've read them.
I'd already read Amnesia as a stand alone short story and I've reviewed it on Good Reads already - suffice to say here that it's a highly original take on the "man wakes up in hospital" theme. Very well written with expertly drawn characters.
There are two episodes of "Snapshots in Time" - an intriguing tale which asks the reader to think about whether they really would like to have a glimpse into the future - would they be able to handle the knowledge they would glean?
The author has a great imagination and his stories make you think - highly recommended - they are practically giving it away on Amazon.
