4.0

This book is apparently the first I reviews on Amazon. At that time, I was not reviewing everything that I read. I have a vague recollection of posting the Amazon review because of the story contained in this anthology written by Linda Addison. In fact, my review was directed at her story rather than the entire book. I must have rated the book 4 stars, but her contribution was definitely a 5-star read.

My Amazon review...
I was browsing around in Barnes & Noble one day and came across Dark Dreams among the new releases. I checked out the table of contents and was extremely pleased to find a story by my friend Linda Addison. Linda is a fine poet and brings the beauty of language to all her written works.

I went home and browsed for it on Amazon and found a second book to buy as a bundle with Dark Dreams called Dark Thirst that just happened to contain a novella by one Linda Addison. Of course, I immediately bought them both.

'The Power' is a terrific story. It is beautifully written and it touched my soul.
