Kent Wayne liked Freya Pickard's review of Approaching Shatter (Echo #1): "Terse and visceral! This book sits firmly in the futuristic science fiction genre and is very different from Wayne’s fantasy writing. The author employs a completely different approach to story telling in this volume. I enjoyed the immediacy of the act" Read more of this review »

This was a great cheeky story infused with a dark sense of paranormal history. It also casts a light on some of the real monsters of humanity, but doesn't beat you over the head with it. There's a call in here to return to common sense, laugh away th ...more

Quotes by Kent Wayne (?)

“There were fewer bonds more powerful than having been young, strong, and miserable together.”
― Kent Wayne, Approaching Shatter

0 likes

“All throughout his life, he'd been rewarded by sticking to a simple philosophy: refuse to be weak. Push as hard as you can. Pain and hardship were not only inevitable, they made you stronger. Fuck everything else. What didn't make you strong wasn't just useless—it was a waste of time.

Occasionally, someone would ask him why he punished himself as harshly as he did. The only answer he could produce was a condescending scoff, or a blank look.

Why not?”
― Kent Wayne, Approaching Shatter

“Nothing felt right. The whole world seemed loose and pliable. He couldn't shake a gut-wrenching feeling that reality's underpinnings were breaking away.”
― Kent Wayne, Approaching Shatter
