Two Evils

DEMON ENERGY by Anthony Renfro is inspired by a biblical story about a legion of demons sent into a herd of pigs. The author didn't do much to make the concept more original, and, with little to no dialogue, this piece is a little dull.

The bonus story, THE DRAGON, also included with Gas Station of the Dead, is a combination of Alexa and the Necronomicon, and much better than the first story.

KILLER TREADS by Anthony Renfro begins with a hard-to-believe scenario. Bob must have been extremely desperate to ignore all the creepiness. I would have immediately left my house. Ironically, there is a caution message for readers (which disrupted the flow of the story). The Lovecraft element is a nice touch, but too little, too late.

Three For One

GAS STATION OF THE DEAD by Anthony Renfro is an unusual apocalypse tale. The zombies can do things such as climb ladders, there is still electricity and running water, and a young man named Cal decides to deliver gas to survivors. Not only is the story very ho-hum, but the ending is one of the laziest attempts at writing that I've ever read.

I enjoyed the author's story, The Lot, but he pulled it from Amazon. (I hope he doesn't ruin it with revisions.)

There are also some bonus stories at the end:

DEVIL AT THE WHEEL is about two friends who take an uncle's car for a joyride, but the joy soon leaves the ride.

THE DRAGON is a combination of Alexa and the Necronomicon.
