Review: The Scarlet Gospels

The Scarlet Gospels by Clive Barker
My rating: 1 of 5 stars

Sorry to say but DNF.
I was really, really looking forward to this, but it just didn't do it for me.
I got to page 100 and still felt quite bored. Maybe some hardcore Barker fans will enjoy it but for me this was a bit of a flop.

Review - Finders Keepers by Stephen King

The last hundred or so pages of this book were really good. So good that I was up reading until 2am! I just didn't want to stop.
However, getting the that last hundred pages was a really big struggle. I think had it been another writer, or if I hadn't already read the previous book in the trilogy I may have given up.
I'm glad I stuck through it because the ending really was good, but it was a looong journey getting there. 
Just too much unecessary filler which seems to be occupying more and more of Kings books lately.

Review - LONDON'S BLEEDING by Matthew Cash & Matthew Hickman

Cash & Hickman certainly have a thing for torturing people. 

It's quite frightening really at how much they have obviously thought about this.

I don't know who wrote which bits, but I thoroughly enjoyed this story.

I actually cringed and flinched at some parts so job well done!

Review - WHY CAN'T I BE YOU? by Matthew Cash

That was short and sweet (no pun intended).
This was a fun quick story. Brutal, but fun. Definitely unique. One way to kill someone is with their favourite addiction.
Good read, I enjoyed it. I'll be checking out more from Mr Cash.

Review: M is for Matty Bob by Iain Rob Wright

That was both terrifying and really funny at the same time. Thoroughly enjoyed it! Then I enjoyed the alternate version just as much. Reading them back to back made the story even more funny.
Knowing matty Bob personally, I could actually see him doing half of this stuff.
He's one of the reasons I'm holding myself back as a writer. I don't want him to become infatuated with me.

Seriously though. Check it out,it's a great laugh

Review: L is for Lamia by Iain Rob Wright

That was brilliant. Each one of these are getting better as the collection goes on.
This one was fast paced and brutal! It felt like I was only reading it for about five minutes. It had me hooked straight away. Definitely recommend.

Review: The Auld Mither by William Meikle

I really enjoyed the last 20% or so of this story. That was scary and fast pace, but getting there was a bit of a struggle. I felt a little bit bored.
I'll be checking more out from the author as the bits I enjoyed, I really enjoyed! 
The rest was just a bit too dull for me I'm afraid.
