We used to wonder where war lived, what it was that made it so vile. And now we realize that we know where it lives...inside ourselves. - Albert Camus

Between 2009 and 2017 Kevin G. Bufton wrote a total of sixty-nine short stories, which appeared in anthologies, magazines, and websites the world over.
Since 2017, he has chosen not to write any more fiction, content to columns and book reviews for his website.
He lives in Birkenhead, on the Wirral Peninsula, with his wife and their two children, where he writes his darkest fiction whilst wearing his brightest shirts.
First off, I would like to say that one of my stories is included in this book. But, I would like to say that I can look at this work objectively. This is a fascinating anthology replete with stories of conflict. Though there are a preponderance of WWI stories, I none-the-less found it quite interesting. Perhaps the best story in the lot is "Requiem for the Unknown Soldier." I sincerely enjoyed the time travel aspect of that one.
