Calling Fire From Heaven
5.0 out of 5.0 stars
by Gregg Voss
In Calling Fire From Heaven, Prelude, the first story is novella length, The Sad Last Days of Max Gordon, and takes place in current times, putting a fascinating twist on “what if” with technology. It follows a young tabloid reporter, who’s entirely too bright for her job, and gets into a life-threatening situation revolving around social media, Hollywood rumors, and terrifying technological advances. I loved this story – it’s frighteningly realistic.
Then the first story in Part I, Virtue , takes place in Edmund, KS, and is a satisfying sequel to Patience , in The Valley of American Shadow .
Next, Now At The Hour of My Death , takes us to a courtroom drama where a murdered victim, a Priest, faces the man who murdered him. This one brings an interesting perspective!
All of Voss’ writing is top-notch, and the stories are profound. It’s no secret, Gregg Voss is one of my favorite authors and I’ve had the pleasure of working with him on both of his short story collections.
Voss’ writing is punctual, alive, and rich. Some of his stories are disturbing, some freaky, some amazing. Each one leaves you in a state as if you’re waking up from a dream when you’ve finished.
In its most simplistic form—get them, read them. You won’t be sorry.
Content: Adult content including: mildly sexual, some swearing, psychologically disturbing, death, and violence.
