Nov 12, 2009

By Tania, Lakeland, FL

"I struggled my way through this book for over two months. I was only able to read one chapter at a time, which is unusual for me. It's not that the book was boring, more that it was fairly depressing and not at all a cohesive entity. When I checked it out of the library I knew it was a collection of short stories, but the jacket description led me to believe those stories are linked in some way. They aren't. Not that I could see anyway. Other than that each story dealt with a relationship, and was usually from a woman's point of view.

All of the stories in this book were depressing, without fail, not a single one had a happy ending. And they were all very weird stories, very unique events told in a mystical manner. Very difficult to read as a body of works."

By Christine, Wheat Ridge, CO

"Secrets of a Fire King is a collection of short stories about people on the frindge of society. A circus worker, Madam Curie's maid, a religious zealot's teenage daughter. . . . These are really good short stories. I was impressed with how Edwards only took a page to introduce the characters and set the stage. A truly enjoyable read."

Jul 20, 2009

By Mandybono, The United States

"Beautiful imagery, clean writing, and well crafted plots mark this collection of short stories. However, the writing is at times so clinical and cool that I felt too removed from the characters, and some of the stories left me emotionally unsatisfied. I would recommend it to read once and also as a tool to learn elements of the craft of writing, but it's not a book you could revisit often. The only story that really resonated with me was "The Way It Felt To be Falling""

By Stephanie, Arlington, VA

"These are short stories similiar to the style of those found in Glimmer Train if you are familiar with that publication. Aristotle's Lantern is by far the best story."
