Review from the
http://www.SwampMist.com web site include:
"Exemplary stories crafted with both an edgy darkness and a sly sense of humor. I found myself thinking “oh how wicked” and eagerly turning the page. This is a don’t miss collection from a very talented writer."

"W. David MacKenzie will spin your head around and send shivers down your spine with his unique and sometimes chilling tales. Each one, whether prose or poetry begins by drawing you into the adventure and leading you down a path of mystery such that there is no way you will be distracted from reaching the end of the story. Once he has you in his labyrinth, MacKenzie will torment you into making wrong turns in your mind, but you are trapped until the footpath reaches the unexpected clearing."
