Torture Porn Paperback – March 20, 2014

Yes. There is an abundance of graphic violence and depraved characters. The author also includes a variety of torture: self-inflicted, involuntary, psychological, physical, mundane, supernatural...not for those with weak stomachs. As a matter of fact, if you are not a serious horror fan, stay the hell away from this book. However, the violence and depravity are just fragments of the nightmares within this collection.A true horror fan will be able to see beyond the gore, into the more disturbing elements of the stories...the lack of empathy, morals and restraint. Many stories seem to have nothing to do with the title. THE SHUT-IN is a story about guilt manifesting into a phobia. In TRANSLUCENCE, the role of monster keeps changing. THE NEBRASKA MOLOCH even had a happy ending. This anthology is a sampler of all the sub-genres of horror.Unfortunately, the variety of stories does not provide a solid theme for this book. THE ALABAMA GODS would have made a better title. There are a couple of issues with the formatting as well: one story appears twice, and the same three characters and morgue appear in two different stories. It's almost like the author couldn't decide how to kill them off.Don't let the title mislead you - this is just a horror anthology...with no limits.***Edited to add: the author has released an updated version since I wrote this review. I believe the issues I mentioned have been corrected.***

English version.

The best I have read in years, I can't wait for your next one I thank you so much oxox super fan

The most torturous part of this book was in trying to read the damn thing

Poorly written, poorly plotted - a waste of time and money.

Fan-Fuckin-Tastic!

I really wanted to like this book, but I just can't. First things first; there's an index listing all 32 stories, but what good is it when there's no numbering on the pages? And second, the whole book is just plagued with typos. In several ocassions, more than once by page so that's 300+ typos in a single book. Look, we all make mistakes and have the ocassional typo but damnit, proof-read your book before publishing it.If you can overlook that, the short stories are ok (if somewhat repetitive methods of torture) and they do deliver gore and slaughter. But overall, I don't recommend this book.

I like the way you take my mind where other people's minds don't want to go! Lovely,vile, interesting read of different stories. Keep up the great work. Never a dull moment!

This is just about the s***tiest book i have ever readSeriouslyThe stories are crap and poorly writtenIts about as far from torture porn as it can get

Not very good

Hated this. Really boring. Glad I didn't pay for it.

I really enjoyed this collection of sick short stories. Welcome to the master of macabre. You won't be disappointed. !!

The book was very good, stories were different and reasonably graphic.The stories stick in your mind well after you have read them!I am looking forward to more stories!
