[M.E. Proctor · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another great selection of stories. I like the 7 stories format. It's a fast and satisfying format. Enough variation in themes to keep the interest and short enough for each story to stand on its own. Standing out for me in this issue (I won't comment on my own contribution) are Nils Gilbertson's "Clairy-V" (love the noir humor), "One Lucky Punch" by Robb T. White (what a pile up!), and Michael Zimecki's "The Number of the Beast" (delicious fake "true crime" vibes, I can't resist that.) An excellent issue.
