Rafellin - It can be easily said that no one likes bosses or job performance reviews at a place of work. But to speak in their favor, they do have to be sure (and keep) the employees doing the work properly. That's why I enjoy this story, it shows us a great example of unhappy employees, in the extreme. Nice to meet you.
David Evil Overlord - Yikes! The nightmare of nightmares, an evil super villain in charge of the media. For me, this is a great tale that has a hint of reality in it. But, this is a great fictional offering, and I like the idea of a machine that can make heroes, or villains. Very cool.
Teresa Edgerton - I'm enchanted with this fractured fairy tale that is an awesome twist on the classic story of
Snow White. I thouroughly enjoyed reading this wonderful retelling which really throttles us at the end with a very Alfred Hitchcockian finish.
Glen - Another superhero story, YES! An absolutely marvelous dramatic comic book tale, that displays superbly that a hero can only do so much to help people and the world. I love how even someone who has great power, does take great measures to be responsible, and can also recognise their limitations, and feel helpless in a modernizing world.
AMB - Outstanding story about a woman who tries her hardest to do her job, plus comes up with efficient solutions and wins the heart of the one she has been in love with. A great tale of triumph and tragedy, enriched with sadness and irony at the same time. Nicely done.
Brev - People say, "Matches are made in Heaven". But in a modern world, people are sometimes brought together by machines that place them together. This is a very delightful romantic science fiction tale that I found very pleasnt and enjoyable to read. Good stuff.
TheDustyZebra - Alright, a detective story! (I nearly did one myself) I was excited to read this most unusual pulp paperback novel-styled treat, and was not disappointed. I was thrilled at the idea of a thought machine used to extract information, and startled at the strange, but chillingly cool ending. Jo E. Morrel, nice touch.
The Spurring Platty - A tale from the deep frigid waters that reaches up like tentacles, grabs hold of you, and squishes you to the bone with astonishing depth. I love the Lovcaftian flavor you added to your well written weird sci-fi fantasy story of creamy creepy goodness. Monstrously fantastic.
Jastius - Truely a wonderful tale that fills the reader with fantastic imagery of incredible events that echo the ancient past of legend and folklore. A tremendous story which unfolds into a romantic and extraordinary finish. Well done.
The Judge - Frankenstein, a name that is known around the world, from a story about a doctor who reanimated a dead man, that was made with body parts of corpses. Plus, made into many movie versions, all inspired by the genius of writer, Mary Shelley. And you showcased her in your own outstanding way. Ghoulishly awesome.
Ursa Major - Stellar story about one disgruntled employee who wants to muck-up the works, secretly, to vent his angry and hostility for the awful and sad treatment of his fellow work mates. I enjoyed how you began this treat with a mystery, then you cue us in as to what is really going on. Good stuff.
Abernovo - I love a spooky space exploration tale on unknown planets, and what is alive there. Who knows what creeping, crawling or (as in this story) floating fate that awaits to greet the individual who lands upon the seemingly peaceful world. Great atmospheric eeriness abounds in this weird science fiction offering. Excellent.
Fitzchiv - Desperate men in prison will do anything to be free, be it the cost of someone else's life, or their own. Stark drama and intense sequences lead up to a shocking and unexpected finish. Nice to meet you, and keep up the good work.
