Planet iPad Editor's Note: Vine Voice Reviewers are a class to themselves among Amazon reviewers. Amazon selects them, and readers judge them with "helpful" or "not helpful" clicks. A Vine Voice reviewer has won respect from Amazon. A reviewer like Linda Bulger, who has earned her way into the top 500 reviewers on Amazon, also has readers' stamp of approval.
So when Bulger says Box of Lies is a great read, listen:
Her Review: 5.0 out of 5 stars Crisp, creative, thought-provoking, November 6, 2010
I've read Mark LaFlamme's work before, so I thought I knew what I was in for with his BOX OF LIES. Shivers at the back of my neck, furtive glances over my shoulder, a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach... delicious! But I didn't bargain on the cumulative effect of more than two dozen stories, each with its own chilling atmosphere. LaFlamme is like a graffiti artist sliding around a corner in the dark with his collar turned up, a few bold strokes and he's moved on--but the territory of your mind has been tagged with his distinctive images.
If you're about to say that short stories aren't your thing, put that opinion on hold for a day or two and peek under the cover here. See if you really can resist. Each story opens with a line that yanks you in: "Trevor Garbo liked dead things." "My name is Rudy Weather and I can read your mind." "It was two days after the world ended when the old van rumbled up Route 4." "'Do you ever worry,' Randall Albee asked him, 'That they might come for you?'" -- Linda Bulger, 2010
