READER PRAISE:
"A seamless blend between reality and fantasy. Franks' prose is evocative and successfully suspends the reader in the ethereal space of magic realism. Things are rarely as they seem."
"Stories lingering in the imagination until long after the last page has been turned."
"A well written and intriguing collection and I will keep an eye out for more of this author's work."
"Short stories that are original, even blow your mind at times, and maybe make you really think."
"Fantastic visualizations, rock solid descriptions, and even better characterization."
"A great journey of a story. I really enjoyed the old man's adventures."
