Jason Brannon's The Misunderstood and Other Misfit Horrors

If you love a little gore with a touch of terror you will love The Misunderstood and Other Misfit Horrors written by Jason Brannon. This book is a collection of dreadfully delicious short stories that will leave you horrified and wanting more.

This is one of the best horror collections I have read in a long time! These stories chilled me to the bone; the characterizations were fantastic, realistic and relatable. The writing is superb. Brannon’s stories are nail-biting, edge-of-your-seat reading that makes it hard to put the book down.. This is one author whose future books I will look forward to reading. Highly recommended! Fast-paced and beautifully plotted, it kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time- from beginning to end.
