Reviews of Dr. North's Wound and Other Stories by John Dodds

'Dr. North's Wound and Other Stories' is an excellent, engrossing, often chilling read. The first story 'Dr. North's Wound' has a "Hawthorne-ian" feel. It had a very dark humanity. However, it was the second story in the collection, 'A Crow Among the Starlings' that established the book for me. It was terrifying in its calm delivery and transformation of an ordinary man.
John Dodds is a serendipitous discovery.
