Secret Space Adventure | Science Fiction Review

ROCKET SHIP TO HELL by Jeffrey Ford is a story within a story, and a fantastic mix of science fiction and horror. I would love to see this made into a film. I've read a couple of other stories by this author, but this short is my favorite Ford creation.

I highly recommend this one to all readers, even if this isn't your usual genre preference.

As always,

Kiss of Death | AstraDaemon

THE THYME FIEND
by Jeffrey Ford is a short story centered on a young man who uses thyme to prevent disturbing visions, but this is also one hell of a ghost story, complete with small town drama and more.

I recently read THE TERROR by Ford, and this is far better. I would love to read more of the author's stories with this writing style. The ending really took the wind out of me.

Deal With Death | AstraDaemon

A TERROR by Jeffrey Ford is a short story centered on Miss Emily Dickinson, based on a poem she wrote about Death. The author is very creative, and the writing style gives the appearance of historical fiction, rather than horror.

However, the task Emily is asked to preform involves a rather gruesome experience.
