*Insert Trombone Slide Here*

A man seeking to forever escape the shadows that plague him locks himself in a room with a lighting system which should eliminate all nearby shadows, only to discover too late that he has made a fatal error.

SHADOWS by Antonio Simon Jr. is basically just a few paragraphs, nothing shocking. Very predictable. Not even close to what I expected from this author.

Simon wrote another short story, NO THANKS, which is one of the very best stories I read in 2018, so I'm at a loss to explain why he bothered releasing this one as a stand-alone. Aside from the pages and pages of advertising tagged onto the end.

As always,
