Smashwords book reviews by Dan Dillard

Cellar Door
on April 26, 2010
I'm a fan. First person writing is hard to do, but this puts the reader in the position of co-pilot, nervously going along with the narrator as he follows Carl through the old house looking for gloom and doom. An old fashioned ghost story with a twist as the specter doesn't jump where you think it's going to. I won't ruin it. Read it!

Cain's Apples
on April 30, 2010
Just awesome. This is reminiscent of every campfire tale or ghost story I remember from when I was a kid. The kind of thing your older brother tells you to keep you up at night. Rod Serling would've been proud. You really should be selling this stuff! Dan Dillard.

Zombie Nights

(no rating)
Entertaining read and a nice take on what it is to be a Zombie...ya know, from the zombie's point of view. I guess you shouldn't judge until you've shambled a mile in his dry-rotted shoes.
