Summary of this Book...
This is a diverse collection of 15 prize-winning short fiction works from the annual Tom Howard Short Story, Essay and Prose Contest. Genres range from science fiction to humor, from romance to suspense, from socializing to anti-socializing. The story I enjoyed the most was "Ash" by Peter Job, which really doesn't fit into any category. It's a character study with haunting echoes of the Spanish Civil War.
This type of Book is good for...
all who enjoy reading great short fiction.
I especially liked...
"Blue Rain", an engrossing science fiction story by Jim Kent.
When I finished reading this Book I wanted to...
write a few such stories myself.
