Since I’m so late with this write-up this week (I was out of town…sorry), I’m going to skip my normal intro and just get right into the Hates/Loves. Hates: 1.

You guys remember Splinter? The horror movie that took place in a gas station? It was impossible to watch this episode and not think about that film. The Mist also came to mind, although that was a slightly bigger setting, with a somewhat unseen menace. I loved it. I love the claustrophobia it brings, but […]

Kay Nash Hiram Grange and the Digital Eucharist is book 3 in a 5-part series of novellas detailing, “The scandalous misadventures of Hiram Grange”.
