Out of Bounds

VIRTUAL INSANITY by Charlie Dalton follows four friends to a virtual reality facility for a bachelor party. While the setup takes some time, the descriptions help readers experience the game along with the players.

Unfortunately, not much happens after George uncovers a secret inside the facilities. The ending is rushed, and I would have preferred to see a confrontation involving Jenny.

For a better Dalton story, I recommend Typhoid Mary.

Tantrum From Hell

TYPHOID MARY by Charlie Dalton begins with a scream, literally. A woman hears wailing from her neighbor's house, and finds something which drives her insane.

A little girl named Mary is the sole survivor of her foster family's murder. Nadine is the police officer who needs to interview her, and realizes Mary can be frightening when she doesn't get her way.

The ending is horrifying.

As always,
