Smashwords book reviews by Richard GK Stark
- The Road Home
on Jan. 31, 2012
Lots of action. Little substance. Wow ! What next. A lot of things happening in very few words. It felt like the description of a computer arcade game. Not bad nonetheless.

A really well written story, albeit a pretty gruesome idea. Just enough detail to draw you in without becoming boring.
