This book was reviewed by Lee Ashford for Readers' Favorite.
“Moving in Shadows” by P.J. Lawton consists of nine very different short tales of the para-normal. Each story in this collection is unlike the others, offering the reader a wide selection of stories. While each story varies, they all are good.
The subjects of the stories include time travel, aliens, ghosts, the Grim Reaper, future sight, a ghost car, a ghost on a bridge, the fountain of youth, and Native American spirit helpers. I found each story to be compelling and well presented, in spite of a couple minor typos.
I also thoroughly enjoyed reading this book all the way through. In most anthologies, I often find one or two stories I don’t care for, but such is not the case with “Moving in Shadows”.
P.J. Lawton has a broad repertoire of publications, covering several genres. These include private detective mystery-adventure novels, a time travel mystery novel, a Sci-Fi private detective mystery novel, paranormal and Sci-Fi short e-books, two volumes of horror and Sci-Fi short stories (including “Moving in Shadows”), and four children's books. It’s apparent he must be doing something right!
Lawton has a way with words, along with a knack for twisted or unexpected endings. His stories are concise, yet leave out nothing. If “Moving in Shadows” is a typical example of Lawton’s work, he is a force to be reckoned with. I urge all fans of any of the above listed genres to check out Lawton’s work. “Moving in Shadows” is the perfect anthology by which you can sample some excellent writing.
