  • The Breath of Life and Other Stories on July 01, 2010

    The variety in this collection offers something for nearly everyone. One of my favorites is "The Figure in the Window," a familiar theme, but Krause offers a different view. A few of the stories step close to D&D tropes, but include a touch of humor. The imaginative stories are great taken a bite at a time.
  • Something's Not Right on July 04, 2010

    Fun, clever stories into the weird. My favorite is "Neither teeter, nor totter" for its imaginative twisting of reality. The book is short, easily read in twenty minutes.
  • Prophecy Moon on Sep. 17, 2010
    star star star star
    Prophecy Moon is a fun fantasy. With the aid of a seer and a portal, the story sends us right into the meat of the problem and continues at a near constant pace. We don't see much of the initial location, but we learn about Travis's home during his adventure. Magic and creatures aren't the main feature. This story is about the people, their relationships, and their history. Except for a few awkward POV issues, the story reads smooth, maybe quick for some.
  • The First Tale on Dec. 29, 2010

    Fun adventure with some steampunk flare. The story moves and keeps a strong pace right to the end. Vertigo City is a cool place full of imaginative characters and neat technology.

    This one-hour story switches between Xan and Theresa, trading questions and making their own music, a groove that carries us to the sweet end. Clevenger and Dorman make one hell of a team. This little bite will leave many looking for more stories.
