Book Review

Author, Daniel J. Weber, has written ‘A Short Story Anthology’, (containing six well-written short stories), that touches deep, dark messages inside most of us, if not all of us. I cannot speak for others, but “Dark Messages” certainly touched me.
From the first short story, to the last, I was riveted to an emotional roller-coaster that didn’t slow down until the end; and the book left me wanting more.
Author, Daniel J. Weber’s, short stories are full of vivid description’s that makes the reader feel as though he/she were right there, in the middle of each scene. The author’s use of allegories was immensely satisfying.
If I had to pick a favorite short story from “Dark Messages”, I don’t know that I could. I related, and was drawn in, to each story. The two that hit home with me were, ‘Undying Memories’ and ‘A Mile In My Shoes’. ‘A Storm Is Coming’ was an excellent story, as was ‘Master of Death’. I cannot even express the thoughts and emotions I experienced while reading, ‘Know Not What They Do’ and ‘Infinity’.
Overall, I think, “Dark Messages” is an excellent book. I recommend it to all, but especially deep thinkers and the philosophical minded.

NOTE: I received a PDF copy of this book for free in return for an honest review.
