Everything about this collection screams “quality”, from the eye-catching art on the front cover to the interior art provided by Luke Spooner, Matt Edginton and others, and the interior design and layout (the author notes accompanying each story is also an especially nice touch). But all of these elements would be pointless if the words weren’t of the same high standard. So, I'm glad to report that Stone has delivered a collection of stories as horrific as they are thought-provoking. His lyrical and poetic style make the words come to life and dance right off of the page and into your head. He writes with an unwavering honesty that may well challenge the reader’s pre-conceived notion of storytelling, but will leave them fulfilled and drained and begging for more, all at the same time. Another fine entry in the blossoming career of a young writer who is only headed in one direction.
