This review is from: Spaceships & Brass Knuckles (Kindle Edition)

The Chanter is almost a fairy tale with good guys, bad guys, in this case bad girl, wise men and a moral underpinning. The story is about an immortal, who outlives her immortality. When it starts effecting others one advisor decides to do something about it, but how do you kill an immortal? After reading the second story Fire in the Sky, I knew the writer was a master at his job. The way a poem is intertwined with a story about a boring afternoon at the parent's house. Hinting, but never telling. That story made me want to read the rest.

The other stories are sometimes fantasy, sometimes science fiction, sometimes crime stories, sometimes funny, sometimes dramatic, but always entertaining.

As the stories have a beginning, middle and rewarding end, they are best read over several reading sessions and not all at once.

My favorite story is The Little Things. It's about a hired gun, killing his war around the country. The way the story is written it's laugh out loud funny. --I picked up the thumb, so the cops wouldn't have my prints.-- Stories don't get better than this one.
