Horror Reader reviewed Dark Furies saying (among other nice things: “There are several truly fine, fun and spooky stories by writers such as James Chambers, Adam Knave, Jan Ruhk, Rose Fox, Danielle Ackley-McPhail, and Patrick Thomas.”
Horror-Web also reviewed it, saying (about my stories, my site, I focus on the obvious guys…):
Introduction: Strange Angel – Adam P. Knave
I give this story a 5. The editing was clean, the story original, and the pace swift. Knave smacks you upside the head, drags you through the mud, and then kisses you on the forehead with this tale of a young girl awakening her darker side.
After These Messages – Adam P. Knave
I give this story a 4. Inventive and original, the story is fun, but predictable. The characters are hilarious and the style of writing is tongue-in cheek. Thank Thumper!
