Twisted Tails
An Anthology To Surprise and Delight
Edited by J. Richard Jacobs
Here is a collection of tales that may leave your mind twisted. Twisted Tails is an anthology as warped as
any I have ever read. J. Richard Jacobs rounds a motley cast of writers, including, Peter Prellwitz (who has been
an Eppie finalist), Marilyn Peake, Jeremy Davies, Biff Mitchell and many others who pool their talents to weave
a tapestry of tales that you may be able to read from cover to cover...I could not. For me, it was like a rich
desert, just a little at a time worked best.
The collection of thirty-one bizarre stories will keep you guessing; you never know what to expect next. "Picture
Postcards" is a wonderful story of the ultimate revenge gone awry. In "Veil" you will meet a hideous troll that will
raise the hair on the back of your neck. There is even a "Big Red Gift" under the Christmas tree that is a great
surprise. Check out the UFOs in "Return to Roswell" with Marilyn Peake and find out why Biff Mitchell is "In a Bad
Mood".
Frightening, funny, and just plain weird, this sampler gave me a teasing preview of the great talent of these
many writers. I will certainly be looking for some of the longer works by many of my favorites. |
