A mishap leads to a peculiar haunting... Antarctic researchers find something strange amid the penguin population... a man with a
millenia-old bone to pick seeks Jesus with a handgun... a very unusual retiree moves into a small apartment... bad weather wakes more
than the tourists at a remote New Zealand campground... Five bizarre tales await in this collection by Steff Metal, including an excerpt

Review
A fun little collection of twisted tales, it reads fast and, for the most part, satisfying. Once in a while the New Zealand slang grew a bit thick for my North American palate, but all in all I enjoyed it. I admit to skimming the novel excerpt - I'm not a fan of sales pitches - but what I read made it look like it could be fun, if not quite my cup of cocoa.
