Price to Pay | Flash Fiction Review | AstraDaemon

THE GIFT OF TIME by Bradley Poage is a flash fiction piece centered on a young writer who discovers his close friend is dying from cancer. He has a family heirloom which could change the outcome, but the change requires a sacrifice. Someone from his past arrives to show the young man exactly what the sacrifice will cost, before his final decision is made.

I was expecting a horror short, but this is more science fiction than anything. However, this is well-written and captivating from beginning to end.

As always,
AstraDaemon
