M. Fenn reviews FORTUNE: LOST AND FOUND
M. Fenn, author of the novella “So the Taino Call It” featured in SUBSTITUTION CIPHER, has written a review of the anthology FORTUNE: LOST AND FOUND:
FORTUNE: LOST AND FOUND, available at Amazon.com.
FORTUNE: LOST AND FOUND is “a horror anthology centered around the theme of greed. Not a bad topic for horror. The twelve authors in this book each approach it in his or her own way, exploring what their characters will do for money, power, voices from the past, or even a good night’s sleep. On the whole, FORTUNE: LOST AND FOUND is a decent read, with most of the stories being well-written and interesting. My favorite, by far, is Brent Michael Kelley’s “A Friend in Paga,” but I also really enjoyed Lizz-Ayn Shaarawi’s “The Rules” and Christian A. Larsen’s “The Plagiarist’s Wireless.” “Down the Pan” by Phil Hickes was also fun.”
