AFTER ARMAGEDDON by Brian L Porter
BLURB:
The title piece, After Armageddon, depicts an aftermath of a global nuclear holocaust, with a surprising twist in the tale. The Voice of Anton Bouchard, soon to be made into a motion picture by Thunderball Films, tells the chilling story of ‘The Butcher Beast’, a vicious serial killer stalking the streets of Paris one long, hot summer. Take a journey inside the mind of a serial killer as ‘Anton Bouchard’ leaps from the pages to turn the streets of Paris red with the blood of his victims.
The Devil You Know takes us to Mexico, where police captain Juan Morales recounts his involvement in the case of a number of missing choirboys. The follow-up novel, Avenue of the Dead, is available for Kindle on Amazon. In Red Sky in the Morning, a nuclear submarine surfaces from a long and arduous patrol to find the sky has turned red, all communication channels are dead, and it appears the crew are all alone on the vast expanse of the ocean. R.I.G.S and Alien Abduction take the reader into the world of science fiction, while the world of the paranormal is featured in The Festival. These and many others are contained in this exciting collection, which also features a guest appearance by horror author Carole Gill, who contributes her short story, Raised.
MY REVIW:
Here’s another well-written collection of works by Brian L Porter. There were several short stories in this collection that I really enjoyed. The Significance of Cherries, Breathing to Death, Bodies in the Cellar and Megalith, to name a few. My favorite, though, was Red Sky in the Morning. I can just see the poor Captain and his crew as they endlessly wander the oceans, searching for any signs of survivors.
At the back of the book is a preview of Under Mexican Skies. Now I’ll have to add this one to my TBR list. Just enough of a teaser to get me interested.
There’s also a story by guest author Carole Gill, entitled Raised. If you’ve yet to read her stories, you must give them a try, as she’s another gifted writer.
If you like odd and unusual, plus short stories, this book is for you. I give it 4 feathers.
