A review by dnemec
Dead Clown Barbecue by Alex McVey, Jeff Strand

4.0

Every time I read something by Jeff, I repeatedly ask myself: "What is wrong with that man?" Then I laugh, giggle, chortle, guffaw and cackle at his work, and am forced to consider: "What is wrong with me?"

Some highlights of the collection are
"Pett Semmuteary" - An interesting extension of Stephen King's classic book.
"Eight-Legged Vengeance"- A story of ridiculous revenge.
"Pregnancy Test" - What if your pregnancy test spoke to you?
"Mr. Twitcher's Miracle Baby-Chopping Machine" - The narrator, after chopping babies for 6 years, decides that perhaps chopping babies is...wrong?
"The Severed Nose" - One thing after another plagues Josh White after he finds a severed nose on a plate in his living room.

A thoroughly fun and enjoyable collection of stories.
