Review -

Those Who Live in Darkness is an excellent collection of short stories that you should be able to tear through rather quickly.

Each of the tales are entertaining in their own right, but there are a couple that are sure to leave you wanting more. For me, From The Gutters was the pick of the bunch and the one that could easily be expanded into a novel length story.

There are some definite trigger warnings to be found in the book, with incest, extreme violence, and some other unsavory nuggets in there, but they are certainly not done solely for shock value.

This is labeled as Volume 1, and I look forward to reading more of the creepy goings on in Towers Valley.

This book is set to release in February, 2024.
