Thirt3en Degrees is a small collection of gore-filled, profanity-laced, fun-to-read horror for all fans of the genre. Some of these short stories are really short (2 pages), but the vast majority of them don't need a lot of pages to hit you with a twist ending that will throw you for a loop. The book is short, but a enjoyable read nonetheless.

Meh

This was not worth the money. Most of these stories were predictable. Maybe I'm jaded because I'm an avid reader but this just wasn't that good of a collection.

Not scary

Worst horror stories ever written. Very predictable, often go on much longer than necessary, and very uninspired. Too many focus on something "too terrifying to describe" and end with some claw grabbing someone. How can you have a book about 13 scary stories when 7 of th are the same story with a different character? Just poor writing.

So as you can see they are all creepy, one made me laugh like a good horror story should, and one almost made me cry. Overall the author was able to envoke every emotion that I had other than maybe anger and joy, but you know, not everyone can be perfect :P.

thirteen degrees

4 stars this was a really good selection of horror stories i especially liked when the stories were told from a childs point of view. a child can imagine more gruesome monsters than any movie ever will.

I wouldn't really say it was "scary" as the endings were predictable. I had the feeling that many of them had the same storyline but with different characters.

Hohum

Very boring not a single frightening tale to be found. Very amateurish story telling. I wouldn't purchase another book by this author even at 99 cents!

Unfortunately my copy is missing about every third page.

Nice read for short stories before bed.

Short but chilling affect

I'm a big horror book fan so you can guess I've read it all. Nothing more scary than the "the end?" Type tales such as this.
