Shroud Magazine Book Reviews: December 2012

http://shroudmagazinebookreviews.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html

Shroud Magazine Book Reviews. Book Reviews of Bold Voices In Dark Fiction. Monday, December 31, 2012. Empyres: Bloodblind (Northampton House), by John Koloski. Is the first in a trilogy that pulls the reader in with a unique, evocative and powerful voice. The suspense is reminiscent of a classic Hitchcock film. And the journey the reader takes—an existential transcendence that continuously evolves—would make Carlos Castaneda proud. Is a breath of fresh air amidst a sea of modernity and convention- an ori...

Cognitive Dissonance: December 2009

http://jestanley.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html

Saturday, December 12, 2009. A Sampling of Rhysling Award Eligible Poems from 2009. A sampling of my Rhysling Award eligible poems from 2009. Publication credits are printed at the bottom after the poems. No be-bop, no swing,. Just the blues, slow blues. That’s all they want. That’s all we play. What do these aliens feel. When they close their eyes,. Sway slowly to human music? Before their dinner,. I pop a couple black market judies,. Washed down with imitation bourbon. Visualize a different time,.

Shroud Magazine Book Reviews: The Narrows (Samhain), by Ronald Malfi

http://shroudmagazinebookreviews.blogspot.com/2013/01/the-narrows-samhain-by-ronald-malfi.html

Shroud Magazine Book Reviews. Book Reviews of Bold Voices In Dark Fiction. Saturday, January 19, 2013. The Narrows (Samhain), by Ronald Malfi. The prose is visually stunning—not because the town is beautiful, because it isn’t—it’s Malfi’s words that are. Such a clear picture is painted with these words that the reader sees the town clearly, warts and all, and knows his way around. It’s as visually written as a movie script. Editing problems aside, though, the characters will stay with you, and the town w...

The joys in being a writer - I am dealing with you quite straightforwardly. My heart is not made of iron. 09:34 am April 24th, 2009. The joys in being a writer. Just put up a review of the current issue of Goblin Fruit. And gave my poem Kalypso. The kind of review that this poet had previously only daydreamed people might give her poetry. I am very flattered and very grateful. It will really get the word out about us and give me a bit more of a chance to get. Now, I'm not huge into Dracula, per say, but ...

Haiku & Horror: Book review: Amidst, by Jerome Cushman

http://greg-schwartz.blogspot.com/2015/04/book-review-amidst-by-jerome-cushman.html

Dwarf Stars Award 2015. Sunday, April 12, 2015. Book review: Amidst, by Jerome Cushman. Many fine books of haiku have been published in English over the last century or so. So many, in fact, that it's hard for one of them to stand out from the rest. However, Jerome Cushman's recent collection of haiku, Amidst. Does a good job of breaking away from the pack. Is filled with simple, unassuming, yet profound haiku. Some of them capture a fleeting but sincere moment:. Sign in the moonlight. Cushman writes in ...
