Product Description

Product Description

Capital, cash, gold, lucre-- money makes the world go round. But fortunes easily gained are often painfully lost. Since the very first king pressed his face onto the very first coin no single thing has led so many to ruin. Fortune, it seems, has a dark side and a wickedly evil sense of humor. Curses, plagues and misfortunes rain down on those who dare to tip the scales in their own favor. Fortune: Lost and Found edited by L.S. Murphy and Kate Jonez is a collection of tales about money and wealth and the potentially horrifying consequences of gaining or losing it.

Featuring stories from Brent Michael Kelley, Kurt Fawver, Christian A. Larsen, Phil Hickes, Wednesday Lee Friday, Garrett Cook, Lizz-Ayn Shaarawi, Andrew G. Dombalagian, Lydia Ondrusek, John Jasper Owens, Eric J. Guignard, Andrew M Stockton, and Cory J. Herndon.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Stories by Talented Authors! 4 Nov 2012
By BookAddict - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition
I found this to be an entertaining and well-written collection. While the writing styles are all completely different, they share the common theme of Fortune. I was intrigued by the way each author interpreted this theme.

The standouts for me were Down the Pan by Phil Hickes, Trabajando Alegre by Wednesday Lee Friday, and Twisted Words by Andrew Stockton. This is not to say the other stories were faulty in any way. I didn't find one bad or even mediocre story in the bunch. The three I mentioned were the ones I connected most with. The writing styles hooked me from the start, and story themes stuck with me long after I'd finished each of them.

4.0 out of 5 stars These stories would be great for full length novels! 28 Sep 2012
By Christi S. - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition
I received a copy of this book in return for an unbiased review. So here we go!

I really enjoyed this book. I am a huge horror fan and I have to tell you that this book delivered on the horror. I think the most shocking thing about these short stories is that if you turned any of them into full length novels they could keep my attention from start to finish. This isn't the case with most short stories.

When it comes to horror, you kinda get where you are expecting the next thing to happen a certain way. This is NOT true for these stories and that was very refreshing to me.

I enjoyed the variety of subjects and I found a few new authors that I plan on looking up in the future so I can follow their work!

Give the book a try!

Cool, spooky, philosophical. A great collection of short stories, written by Authors with very different styles which all manage to keep the theme of the collection extremely cohesive. Loved it.
