Greg Gifune's digital short story, Ushers of Darkness, is another fine tale from him. The protagonist's characterization is fully realized, even in a story that's barely 16 or 17 pages long. The tale is marvelously written, as is customary with Gifune. The only drawback, in my opinion, is the cliched resolution, which was a mild disappointment. Other than that, you could do a lot worse for $1.49. Highly recommended!
Larry and Shane are the tops in the business. I have never had an issue with any order (and there have been many) and I have been 100% satisfied with the care and quality of their products. I cannot recommend this store more highly and I will certainly be placing another order soon. Thanks guys.

I'm fairly new to the genre of horror literature. What a superb site! I've only ordered three times but everything has been professional and speedy. I even ordered two of an item by mistake on my first visit and requested that only one be shipped. Absolutely taken care of; no problem, no questions, no hassle. Thanks for the excellent service, site, and selection. I'll be back many times.

Author: William C. Rasmussen Fresh Blood, featuring three tales from David Alexander, Kelli Dunlap and Bob Freeman, is a mixed bag from Burning Effigy Press. The Dunlap tale is the strongest, showcasing a mother's revenge with a twist you won't see coming. Alexander's tale is bizarre, detailing an adolescent boy discovering he has a hair growing out of his chest...but when he tries to pluck it, he learns it apparently has no end! I couldn't get into Freeman's tale, just not to my taste with its Gothic roots. Overall, not a bad collection of stories for 8 bucks! Recommended!
