review 1: Some great short stories, others that I didn't like at all. "The Frost Mountain Picnic Massacre" is the short story I always wanted to write. It's an amazing short story! The satirical wit makes it one of the best short stories I have ever read; a damning indictment of American culture and politics. I just wish I liked more of the stories in this collection. I almost couldn't finish the last story, "Animalcula..." I'm sure we'll hear more from this gifted writer.
review 2: I think what I found so fascinating with this collection of short stories is that it was Seth Fried's debut collection. His language is that of an experienced writer who has been releasing novels for the past ten years. His stories are hilarious, frightening, and absurd. I especially lo... moreved his last story "Animacula: A Young Scientist's Guide to New Creatures." It was strange, very funny, and suprisingly real (seeing that he made up the entire world of tiny animal-like particles). I really enjoyed this collection from Seth Fried, and I'm looking forward to when he publishes a novel, or another set of short stories. less
