Reviews

[John Naylor · Rating 5 out of 5]

I received this ebook for free from Smashwords after the author pointed it out to me.

It is 5 short stories all of which are interesting, different and they show a lot of promise for the author. There are glimpses of sci-fi, fantasy and romance as well as a good understanding of human nature in the words. I would probably read an extended version of any of them and enjoy it.
