review 1: This story is what I consider “literary horror,” or “psychological horror,” where the blood and gore aren’t important, and sometimes there isn’t even spirits nor hauntings. That said, let me add that the ending of this story carries a powerful impact (so does a rocket launcher) and even when you think, “oh, that wasn’t so bad,” you’ll find that yes, it got you after all, and you can’t seem to forget the outcome.Poor Mrs. Rebecca-after thirty-six years, her husband dumps her-that’s a downer; then she finds a new “companion”-that’s an upper; but then-life goes on, just as it always does-and like everywhere, children grow up and grow away and…Now go find out for yourself-but hold on to your heart….
review 2: Shatterboy was a short... more, short story, with a long preview to another one of the author's novels. I think it's kind of silly that the preview was longer than the story here, but...Shatterboy was a short story about a glass boy. Pretty predictable, nothing special. The preview into Carter's novel was fairy interesting, but, not enough to make me buy it. It was better than the short story, though-and if I find it for free, yeah, I'll read it. :p less
