This
is the second time I read anything written by Ms. Black. The first had been
“The Hunted.” As I said in my review back then that I’ll be adding this book to
my TBR; my only regret is I didn’t decide to read it sooner.
“Long
Stories Short” is a collection of ten short stories written by this author, of
which, “The Hunted” is one of them, none of the other stories disappointed
me.
To
paraphrase what I said in my review for “The Hunted”:
As
you read her stories you’re immediately sucked into each one. Ms. Black through
her writing skills is able in each to create a mental picture of what’s
happening; all the sights, smells, and dialogue. All of the stories have the
ability, if it’s done right, to be expanded into a novella. In all of the short
stories in the book Ms. Black succeeds in giving her readers an unexpected
surprise twist at the end of each one, which definitely adds to the enjoyment
of reading each one.
I’m
therefore not hesitating in giving this book 5 STARS.
