Flash Fiction is very hit or miss with me. More often a miss but I find gems here or there so I don't just pass it up.

This series of flash Fiction was typical of the genre. A good starting place if you have never read that style.

From Lilac Wolf and Stuff

Wow! I read this in less than an hour. I really feel like I know flash fiction now. Each story had to do with death, either the main character's death or someone that person was close to. One was the last thoughts of a man who fell off a roof. Another was a courtesan who was accused of treason and sentenced to beheading. I loved the pirate who was hanged. He was sad they covered his face, losing the sun and fresh breeze before his death.

I can't go on and on, seriously it's like 8 pages long according to the e-book. There are a bunch of stories, it moves so very fast you barely catch your breath before starting the next one. Great for a "bathroom reader" or a short trip...it will keep you occupied and entertained. Plus it's only 99cents. :-D
