review 1: It's always good to sample a new author in a short story form, this way one doesn't get stuck with a book. This was a nice introduction to Rufty, author new to me, but already established with Samhain publishers. This short story itself was decent enough, very quick read, adequate writing dramatically overshadowed by the marvelously creepy humanoid creatures. A whole carnival worth of evil tiny cannibalistic beings, very nicely imagined. Would have totally worked as an opening for a novel, a prequel to a larger work.
review 2: Dr. Vincent Carlson is a country doctor who lives on his farm in a remote area of Wisconsin. He has a very beautiful daughter named Leanne. As the story opens, there is a thunderstorm and it is nearing midnight, the time Leanne said she w... moreould be back from seeing a show performed by a traveling circus called the "Haunchyville Carnival". Now all these deep-rooted fears we have of the freaks that used to be the attraction at a circus in the days when there was no television the author of this amazing short story uses to his advantage. He really knows how to scare his readers. I loved the imagery "Vincent could only see his corn in the burst of a lightning flash". Any horror fiction junkie should check this out! less
