Read MoreÉkleipsis: the Abyss (Book Review #1285)
Ékleipsis: the Abyss is the second short story collection filled with suspense, horror, and fiction. Since I had read book one, I was expecting the same quality of writing and penmanship. The author definitely did not disappoint.
The premise of the stories was all magnified with much suspense and thrill. The author manages to inspire the imagination with every scene. The storytelling is descriptive and enjoyable to read.
If you are not an avid reader, you will enjoy this book because you can read it in several sittings.
What is particularly like in this style of literature is how the characters were developed into becoming something more. It is apparent that the author house found his niche, and rightfully so. I look forward to reading more from his selection of stories and recommend this book to those who are horror fans.
