Reviews

Matthew Tait's collection of short stories kidnaps the reader and abandons him in a disturbing world of lunacy and paranoia. Tait's horror is at the same time in-your-face and darkly atmospheric. There are some recurring themes that give this collection a sense of haunting continuity. Stand-out tales like "The Devil's Plaything" and "Dark Crib" introduce the reader to the town of Cyclone Cove, where it's not always easy to tell just who the maniacs really are while "Car Crash Weather" and "Terrica" illustrate the terror of the automobile. Every horror fan should join Tait on his grim road-trip through a desert world.
