The Devil Took Her: Tales of Horror by Michael Botur, Michael Botur

dark emotional mysterious sad tense medium-paced

4.0

An exquisite collection of 12 horror stories that I enjoyed. Horror stories but not from hell or the supernatural, they're the humankind which in some cases are really more creepy than other realms.

My favorites were:

The Writing on the Rat: is quite graphic but couldn't stop reading it.

The Devil Took Her: A private investigator is hired to find a missing reporter, what he finds shakes him to the core.

Fake Id: A student acquires a fake id from his rich friend to buy booze but he gets more than he bargains for, especially from his friend's neurosurgeon parents.

The Strange Paper: A boy growing up reading a magazine about UFOs, conspiracies, cryptozoology you know the stuff kids love to read. He's now an adult and an opportunity presents itself as a chance to meet the editor and a position is offered to him but is he ready to give his all even his sole to the course?

The Devil Took Her: is my first read by Michael and really enjoyed it, liked his writing style and especially how his mind works. Would love to know from where he gets his inspiration to write some twisted tales. 

Many thanks to Henry Roi PR for my spot on the tour.
