Eclectic and sometimes inspirational,

This review is from: Great Short Stories by YouWriteOn.Com Writers (Paperback)
As with most multi-author short story collections, this is an eclectic mix, but I have to say there are some utterly outstanding short stories in here, two of which are vying to be on my top favourites list: Jasper Dorgan's A Good War is an astonishing piece of work about a young girl growing up in Regensburg during the second world war. I don't usually like children's points of view in literature, but it was simply incredible, utterly gripping and should be winning awards right, left and centre. Big-time. Along with that, Perry Iles' The Light from Stars could well be something written by Annie Proulx - a first-class and hugely perceptive story about a man's relationship with his father-in-law and absent wife. The ending is full of hope and extremely classy. If either of those two authors produce short story collections of their own, I would probably kill to be at the front of the buying queue. I also enjoyed M J Saxton's The Crystal Queen (a classy and classic ghost story which was very well-written), Danny Gillan's It's Not About You (nice quirky take on a crime story) and Lexi Revellian's Comforted by Darkness (gripping supernatural tale about the arrival of Death - in every sense!). Well worth a read for sure.
