I think I stumbled on this as a freebie some time back & it looked interesting. I really like short stories to read during lunch & this turned out to be a great pick. The stories varied in length from a page or two to decent size - no novellas - which is fine by me, but there was enough meat in them to always keep me interested. Most were good action, revolving around a solid story.
Not really 4 star quality, but 3.5 certainly & I'm rounding up due to the price. He's definitely an author to keep an eye on. He has my thanks for many enjoyable lunch time reads.
