5.0 out of 5 stars By Ulla H on July 23, 2016
Format: Kindle Edition
I just finished reading Twisted Tales – 15 Literary Lies & Epic Yarns. I’m impressed. To create engaging characters, a spellbinding plot, and then hit the reader with a surprise ending—all of it in 50 pages or less—shows the amazing talent each one of these authors has.

There is something for every reader in this short story collection. I laughed and cried and bit my nails. Here we have it all: a fun pick-up story; a moving-me-to-tears abuse story; a chilling Stephen King-ish horror story; a spooky losing your dog story; a Sci-Fi story; a humorous story about escaping East Berlin, then learning to cope with life in California; a sad story of lost identity; an amusing story of a house plagued by meteorites; a surprise seduction/revenge story; a kid with special powers; an amusing take on astrology; bad decisions can be deadly; a draft dodger story; a clever story about linguistics; a conversation with a Muslim in hijab.

    I have always enjoyed writing short stories and they are almost always horror stories. I hope you will take the time to read not only my stories in these anthologies, but also read the short stories of the other fine authors who have contributed. You will probably find other authors you enjoy. Look for other books they have written. And please take the time to let them know you enjoy their work.
