This book is a hard deal to beat! Entertaining fiction, short enough to read in a session, Mr. Webb has been gracious to let us enjoy a sample of his talent for free! Plus the stories are every bit as entertaining as you can imagine.

I have hosted some of Mark's work on my radio program Beam Me Up on WRFR lp/fm in Rockland Maine usa as well as the program's blog beammeuppodcast.com.

I really can not say anything else but try the book, I think you will find it as genuinely entertaining as I have.

The flash fiction story ‘Shipwrecked’ from ‘A Flash in the Pan?’ got me thinking. I quickly read the rest of them. This is the first flash fiction I’ve read and I liked it
