Reviews

[Curtis · Rating 4 out of 5]

The book you write after watching Black Mirror: White Christmas and deciding that you want to do something similar.

[Chris Powers · Rating 5 out of 5]

Brian Evenson is a master of short fiction. Glitch is no exception to that. A mind bending look at consciousness through a modern eye. I really don't want to say more than that. It's short, it's Evenson, go read it.

I doubt this would be your intro to Evenson. If it is welcome to one of the greatest speculative fiction writers living, and go read Last Days.
