Michelle Holland came in at number 3 for the Best Indie Authors of 2018. Author Bio (from the author): In 1995 I opened my own sanctuary for New Forest ponies and saved and rehomed over 57 from slaughter over a 5 year period. This was so rewarding and totally voluntary and I had to raise over £80,000 a year to keep it going. I took on Chelsea who was 6 months old, she was riddled with lice and...

Rewarding read! Woodruff put together a grand collection of dark humor within the 26 Absurdities of Tragic Proportions. Each story has a unique look into the depths of dark humor. The author uses imagery and adventure, and of course, misadventure to b ...more |

A great sequel Baldwin definitely pens a great story in Flak. It's the second book in her Tribe series. I like Baldwin's writing style and how she introduces characters to the audience. The story may be intended for YA reading, but I enjoyed it. Ben i ...more |

A great fantasy story Dale pens a great story in We Could Be Heroes. I only recently became aware of Dale's work, and this is the third book that I've read by this author. The fantasy aspect of the story worked well with the plot, but it wasn't just a ...more |

Intriguing dark story Duval's Inhaled is the first I've read from this author. I found the story both dark and tantalizing. There is eroticism within the story and a lot of this story revolves around sex, mostly the power of it. Isabelle is the main c ...more |

“There are certain crimes that are simply too cruel, too sadistic, too hideous to be forgiven.”
― Journey Into Darkness

“When rehabilitation works, there is no question that it is the best and most productive use of the correctional system. It stands to reason: if we can take a bad guy and turn him into a good guy and then let him out, then that’s one fewer bad guy to harm us. . . .
Where I do not think there is much hope. . .is when we deal with serial killers and sexual predators, the people I have spent most of my career hunting and studying. These people do what they do. . .because it feels good, because they want to, because it gives
them satisfaction. You can certainly make the argument, and I will agree with you, that many of them are compensating for bad jobs, poor self-image, mistreatment by parents, any number of things. But that doesn’t mean we’re going to be able to rehabilitate them.”

“I've come out many times publicly in support of the death penalty. I've stated that I'd be more than willing personally to pull the switch on some of the monsters I've hunted in my career with the FBI. But Bruno Hauptmann just doesn't fit into this category -- the evidence just wasn't, and isn't, there to have confidently sent him to the electric chair. To impose the one sentence for which there is no retroactive correction requires a far higher standard of proof than was seen here. Blaming him for the entire crime was, to my mind, an expedient and simpleminded solution to a private horror that had become a national obsession.”
