Great book. Just about the time you think you have it, it changes. The Punishment Room really made me think, good stuff. ( )

Reading Brian Freeman is such a treat. Just finished Seven Stories, and I'm left wanting more. This short story collection is a must read for anyone looking for some new blood. Each story left off with whats going to happen next, and that's where your own imagination will lead you down the path Mr. Freeman has taken us to. My personal favorites are Walking With the Ghosts of Pier 13, and The Punishment Room. ( )

This is the best way that I could recommend you introduce yourself to Brian James Freeman's short stories. It has seven great dark tales. Nothing too gory. Nothing too Monster-y (except for the ones we hide within ourselves). Many of these were published under the name "Brian Freeman" in various anthologies (like Cemetery Dance Publication's "Shivers" series). It is currently only on Amazon for Kindle, Kindle for PC/Mac, etc... (here http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003UNLJZE?ie=UTF8&tag=boembo-20 ). It is currently only about $2.99, and it is an awesome collection to start after you read Mr. Freeman's "The Painted Darkness." ( )
