The truth is much more horrifying. " -Ellen Datlow"Steven Lloyd's When Darkness Falls showcases an original take on the idea of serial killing and supernatural revenge. Lloyd crafts some creepy mojo from the get-go and never lets up. " -Bryan Smith, author of House of Blood and Deathbringer "Creepy stuff A wild ride indeed. .. call me a big fan, 'cause I look forward to reading this guy for years to come. .. -James Newman (Midnight Rain, Holy Rollers) (For "When Darkness Fall")"A genuinely creepy trip to the dark side. Read it at night with the lights down low, and feel the chill. " -Bill Crider, author of Keepers of The Beast. (For "When Darkness Fall") "The best horror stories are those that rip out human emotions and place them under a microscope for closer inspection. In 'The Wooden Box, ' Steven Lloyd takes a hard look at love and death without relying on the supernatural to create a sense of foreboding and dread. Instead, the ghosts in this story are the memories of better days as a husband gives one final gift to his dying wife. At times both touching and disturbing, 'The Wooden Box' is a gripping story that builds to an unsettling conclusion. " -Jason Brannon"Fascinating " -T. M. Wright, author of The Strange Seed, Blue Canoe, and The House on Orchid Street (For "The Wooden Box")"'The Wooden Box' is as excruciating as it is uplifting. It's a simple parable, but it packs a strong punch. " -The Horror Drive-In"'The Wooden Box' is powerful, tough, and tender. Read it and see what I mean. " -Bill Crider"A beautiful story. " -Kealan Patrick Burke (For "The Wooden Box")Strange Roads "An incredible Writer. " -Ronald Kelly (For "The Wooden Box")"Full of well-developed characters, sharp twists and turns, and a compelling story, I think that if you dig horror, you'll dig this book. Don't pass it up. " -Eric S. Brown
