Incident at the West Flatte Dairy Queen - Brian L Braden: full of twists, this was a great read. I enjoyed the main character, and thought the plot was well thought out.

Razor - Will Swardstrom: suspense in spades. This was an intense little story. I'm dying to read more of this, and find out what happened! Great character development in this story as well.

The Dead Zone - Hanna Elizabeth: action packed. Even though some of the characters felt a little flat, this was still a fun read. It can be hard to flesh characters out in a short story as you usually don't have room to give much detail to them. The characters weren't bad, they just seemed to be missing a little something. Still, a four star story.

The Dragon is in the Details - Thomas Cardin: Less gritty than most of the other stories in the collection, this story was still a very cool addition to Cardin's Vorallon universe. Cardin's character development is top notch, and reminiscent of the Dragonlance Chronicles in how quickly his writing draws you into the story.

The Dawning - Allison M Dickson: This was a terrific short. Well written and well developed characters. Neat little twist at the end too.

The Raven's Claw - JW Kent: This was another GREAT little story. A stand-alone tale of horror and madness, The Raven's Claw is a mix of Poe and Matheson that will surprise you again and again before you finish it. Well done!

Flesh and Blood - Renee Miller: This has been the most twisted story in the collection so far. Very well written, graphic, and well developed, this story was great. It was fast-paced, and full of twists.

Camp 24 - Robert Brumm: Part Shawshank Redemption and part Dystopia, Camp 24 was a very entertaining read. Excellent character development and a couple of great plot twists made this story my favorite in the collection so far.

The Seven at Work - Katrina Monroe: This was another cool little short that could easily lead to a big story. Well written and clever.

The torso farmer - Steve Wetherwell: Wow! What a great start to the collection! This story was gripping, with great characters, and a decent little bit of world-building for a short story. I want to read more of this story!
