A small town becomes obsessed with
television—to the point of madness.
A cheerful innocent confronts the harsh reality of the world and is forever
changed by the experience.
A struggling author begins receiving strange messages on the paper he uses to
write.
A bullied, brilliant teen is put through the wringer of his high school and
comes out the other side insane.
A detective of the future discovers he may be investigating his own untimely
demise—and that of the world’s.
These and one more dark fable await
you from the imaginative mind of the award-winning author Michael Thomas
Perone. Part fractured fairy tales, part nightmare fuel, The Electric
God and Other Shorts follows characters who struggle to
remain sane in an insane world and features stories that will keep you up at
night, wondering what might be lurking in the shadows.
The author starts this story with an Introduction. He states that these stories are dark. He was not kidding. "The Electric God" is an interesting story that made me think about how much we rely on television sets. As someone who grew up without "pay channels", I totally agree with how insane it is to have so many different channels nowadays. "Paper Language" was fun and made me think about the other stories I have read about "killer typewriters" I was surprised at the ending. I read " School Spirit" twice to see all I missed the first time. Definitely do not read these stories if you do not like horror. I, however, love horror and was pleasantly surprised by some of the endings. I am giving this book a 4/5. I was given a copy to review, However, all opinions are my own.
