Take a gay club add a bunch of zombies and what do tu get? This refreshing take on the zombie apocalypse myth. Gone are the stereotypical collection of survivors that we normally get in these stories. There's no ex-military muscle bound hero that saves the día with the big guns. The characters here are just regular people, scared and clueless as to what's happening, relying on each other despite their desperate situation. It always makes the story better when tu care about what happens to the survivors and that is sometimes forgotten in libros of this type. Of course there's still the requisite amount of guts and gore with plenty of violence and the pace of the story never slackens as we hurtle towards the ending which happens to be both upbeat and upsetting at the same time.
This is an excellent little novella filled with characters tu don't get to read about too often and certainly not ever as the heroes of the piece. There is also a slight commentary on the treatment and assessment of gay in society and the depiction of gays in fiction. This doesn't subtract from the novella at all, in fact it enriches it, giving tu an extra dimension to consider.
I will definitely be getting más stories from this author.

Flash fiction seems to be a growing trend and in this ebook it is done brilliantly. Using EXACTLY 100 words for a story must be tricky,to instantly interest the reader but not leave them frustrated that the story ended too soon. Most of the stories included here deal with zombies. Seen from many angles there is a crude nasty humour that runs throughout most of them. It tasteless and dark but magnificent and exactly what horror fans want. There are other stories included that are of normal short story length and deal with different topics that include apocalypse and weird fantasy.
This collection is high on quality and although tu may read it in one sitting some of the tales here will stay in your head for a while after. Well written and edited it is definitely worth your time.

Sound bizarre? It is. It's also blistering witty, extremely violent, filled with acidic one-liners and lashings of gore. This book (the autor remains nameless) is for anyone who loves a bit of anarchy in their lectura material. The plot jumps all over the place and tu have to keep up and still,just when tu think you've got it all figured out, there's a twist.For it's sheer inventiveness, this book is highly recommended.
Here is a eccentric and eclectic selection of bizarro short stories por one of the leading writers in the field Andersen Prunty.
There are over twenty tales in all, covering such weirdness as a man who puts a dog into orbit, a father who throws rocks at a kids head, a balloon-man who loses his secret power and a competition that revolves around injuring pedestrians to earn points and win money.
All these stories are exceptionally well written, brimming with invention and weirdness. Some lean on the horrific side of literature,some the más humorous and some a wild mixture of sorrow, fear and hope.
If tu are new to the bizarro fiction movement, tu could start here quite happily. This book isn't as extreme in terms of sex and violence as other collections but none the less an enthralling read about seeing the world through a glass askew.

I have read quite a few short story collections and this is one of the best I've read. I think I liked it because not matter how dark, gross and horrifying the stories there's an underlying insane glee to all of them like mad people laughing at the moon while they eat their own fingers. There isn't a bad o boring story on mostrar here. All are well-written and the piece on the whole is also well edited.
Try this ebook, it's brilliant.
