Boneyard Smack
by
G.N. Braun (Goodreads Author)
The heroin-addled streets, populated by junkies just looking to score. It pays to be careful about what you're pumping into your veins because you never know what you're going to get. But let's face it - if you're looking to score in a cemetery you kinda have to expect the worst. Boneyard Smack is a short, sharp story, covered in more grime than the cutlery at a one-star m...more

An awesome read. Gave me an insight and a bit more of an understanding into another life.
Wow, great descriptive short about an addicts never ending quest for the next high. Really, I'm actually disappointed it wasn't longer. I've never put my self in a junkies shoes before until now and this story makes me glad I'm not one. Can't wait to read more from Mr. Braun
3.5 stars. Short 8 page pdf ebook with a different angle on a strung out heroin addict looking for a score. Gritty tale about the dark side of society and a very decent debut.
A great start from this promising author. A gritty tale that will give readers a sample of what Braun is capable of. Keep your eyes peeled, it's only going to get better.
Braun gives us 2 minutes trapped in the mind of a junkie trying to get a fix...
A short, sharp shock. Nothing scarier than real life.

Short, nasty and scarily realistic!
A strung out junkie desperate for his next score follows a group of fellow junkies to a cemetery where he’s been led to believe he can buy some good smack for $50.00. Only 8 pages long this morality tale is short and gets to its point quickly. This story was good but too brief. I would have liked to know a little more about the protagonist before he made his visit to the boneyard. But I’m picky like that.
I love happy endings.

This story took a crooked turn. I won't spoil anything but I thought the concept was a rather original take on a fairly common subject. Great title, quite realistic in it's descriptions, and a great line of dialog towards the end. Effing cops...
This would be more like a 3.5 rating. I liked this short taste of G.N. Braun's work.

A good story, really gritty with a shocking ending. If you're not faint-hearted, take 2 minutes to read it.
