Looking at this book cover, I thought this was a children's book. However, after reading the review, my interest is piqued. I'd like to find out how these little sci-fi stories add up. Thanks for the amazing review.

These sound like some crazy and horrific science-fiction stories! The one about giant wasps sounds terrifying!

This seems to be an exciting sci-fi thriller. Unknown virus ravaging the world comes close to the COVID-19 epidemic. Thanks for the review.

A combination of sci-fi and horror that revolves around the effects of the disorienting airborne issue that is affecting humans and society. The author did a good job ending the two genres perfectly. Thanks for your honest review.

The names of the six stories alone are enough to intrigue me. The common theme of disturbing, thought-provoking darkness running through all and fabulous prose just about clinched the deal. I love how you explained your thoughts on the book as well. Congrats on making BOTD!

This book is something I haven't seen before. It's quite interesting since it consist of realistic yet odd elements. I don't know how to explain it but this kind of horror and scientific book that tackles reality in a unique way caught my interest. I am looking forward to read this.

I'm not a huge fan of sci-fi novels, so I'm going to pass on this read. This review is highly descriptive and I can see why people who are into this genre would flock to it.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting collection of short science fiction stories with a range of different themes such as an airborne pathogen, giant wasps, and space travel. It might be worth a second look. Well done.

I typically don’t care for grotesque stories, so I’ll probably pass on this one. I like the idea of short stories though! Interesting concept.

I enjoy short stories. This anthology of weird stories sounds appealing and unique. It is not for everyone, tho. The dystopian premise in a sci-fi blending with horror makes the plot quite inovative. I like the easy to understand writing style and also no profanity or sexual contents make this book even better. Thank you for a great review.

I love that the book is compromised of short stories for the horror enthusiasts. It sounds like the author has a knack for creating multidimensional characters. Congrats on the BOTD.
