Thirteen stories from the grave . . . You over there - come a little closer. Closer still; there's no need to be shy. We have tales of terrors beyond your wildest nightmares; stories of monsters, madness, the dark and the dangerous. The dead have voices, and we need to be heard. Settle down, sit tight. We're going to be here all night.
Fleming has really delivered a little something for everyone here . . . There are aliens and evil artefacts, moments of madness and spooky old buildings, walking corpses and all-consuming flames - all the things that give a reader of any age that sickly but strangely delicious urge to shudder. My advice Grab yourself a bowl of popcorn and a cushion, and read on... if you dare! * Musings of a Bookshop Girl Blog *
