[A.M. Leishman · Rating 5 out of 5]

A wonderful series of short stories

14 X 7 is a well crafted compilation of science fiction stories containing Twilight Zone like plot twists. The Author’s ability to make you care about a character in as little as a single page left me feeling punched in the gut at the end of many of them. Some of these stories were quite dark, which is what made them so good. I’m not embarrassed to say the story, “Angels”, left me a bit emotional.


I’ve never read a non-poem compilation of short works before. This experience has me searching for more books like 14 X 7. Not only was this book an entertaining read, it’s great for quick reads in the parking lot or driveway.

Although the title says SciFi, there are also some supernatural, horror, and political stories in this collection. The stories are all short. Each only takes a few minutes or less to read. As expected with any varied collection, I enjoyed some stories more than others. But all of them are imaginative and entertaining. Which is what I want from fiction.
