After the People Lights Have Gone Off ★★★★☆ “In some houses love really can last forever.”
That was beautiful and disturbing. A disabled sleepwalker was scary visual! I wish the story included what happened to the mother.
Second Chances ★★★☆☆ A scientist who lost her son looks for him in her work.
Xebico ★☆☆☆☆ Animal violence. A guy is working as a stage hand, he gets confused, there’s a murdered dog - the end. WTF?
Jack Ryan season 3 going off piste: https://youtu.be/gzaAIESlfHACould be great, could be an overlong crapsickle, hard to tell.
Some consider Hell a Loop. It was visualized that way in American Horror Story and Lucifer.
The Dead Are Not ★☆☆☆☆ Cancer, grief, aliens… nothing happens.
Thanks for sharing guesses on This is Love Fiona.
Doc’s Story ★★★★☆ “We’re werewolves, this is what we do. This is how we live - if you want to call it that.”
This is was so depressing, dark and strange that it felt real.
Snow Monsters ★★☆☆☆Possibly, through death magic, parents save their children. I was two minutes into the next story before I realized Snow Monsters had ‘concluded.’
Ok. I’m going to pause for today because this has been a boring outrage.
The Spider Box ★☆☆☆☆ Nothing happens.
The Black Sleeve of Destiny ★☆☆☆☆Nothing happens.
The Spindly Man ★★☆☆☆ A book club reads some Stephen King. Did something interesting happen? Was it imagination?
What’s with these stories!?!? Some body grab a knife and go hunt a monster.
This Is Love ★★★☆☆ Again, this ended too abruptly. What the heck happened? Did he accidentally run over his boyfriend? Did his boyfriend run away after finding a child’s body? Did the camp families find a child’s dead body then see a skimpily dressed man looking under bathroom stalls? So much of the story sounded like things he thought were happening or might happen. It read like a bad dream of a toxic relationship that might have ended with violence and a Groundhog Day nightmare.
Thirteen ★★★½☆ No don’t end there! I felt like the story was just getting legs! I hope he writes a Native American Tattoo Artist book.
Steptember sounds great! I just started, listening to 13.
That’s not a line I would trust a marshal robot with.
I remember her from Bedknobs and Broomsticks.
Timetipping by Jack Dann DNF I lost interest.
Anniversary Project by Joe Haldeman DNFSometimes when people write about the future it’s so deeply foreign as to be unintelligible. That may be accurate, but it makes for a crappy story.
