 Rating:  - Waste of Money!!I usually don't waste a lot of time writing these Amazon reviews but I really feel I must warn other would-be customers. This has got to be one of the most amateur collection of short stories I've ever read. Poorly written, badly edited, no follow through on any of the ideas presented and basically just shallow material. You can't even really call them stories cuz they are all only about 2-3 pages long. All of the tales in this mini-book are completely formulaic. I was really disapointed with ... Read More Rating: - Dying daysEric S. Brown, 29 years old, is an author with an active imagination. In his collection: Dying Days, you'll find 19 tales of horror and cross-genres. All the stories are quite short, a few were perhaps too short to really get into the characters and the settings.

The title novella takes on a familiar theme, with a surprising twist. The writing lags a bit here and there, and it could've been improved with more action and less telling. Maybe spice up the dialogue, too. After the satisfying novella come several tasty tales of terror, each one unique in its own frightening and clever way. It seems that this book could have been improved quite a bit ... Read More Rating: - Spellbound by the Dark Mage of DeathThis book of short stories put out by Eric Brown is his best work so far. A newcomer to writing about the dark side of life, he is quickly emerging as one of the best. My favorite story is called "The Return", bringing an interesting twist to the end of our mortal lives and touching on how intertwined our immortal souls are to it. His longest story, "Dying Days" focuses on the aftermath of an mysterious "wave" that the earth passes through. The book is full of short stories for everyone that enjoys the ... Read More
