    As a new member to the Repairman Jack fan club, I was not disappointed with this short tale. I was amused with the irony at the end. I am a fan, Mr. Wilson. Keep 'em comin'...

    I enjoyed this short collection. Some of the stories flowed poetically for me. My favorite was "The Truth" and I could envision it becoming a full length story on its own. Good job, Shannon. I look forward to more.
