Review on Amazon
Entertaining short stories, November 22, 2015
I had this in my collection for quite a while, having gotten it for free somehow or other. It might have been a freebie of some type. It is in Kindle Unlimited (not Prime though), so if you are interested in getting it free that's one good option. Otherwise it's quite expensive for a short collection of short stories.
I read it on the train between Lehi and Salt Lake City Utah. It's about a half hour ride at both ends of the work day. The stories were suitably dismal and depressing. There is no ray of sunshine in this book. Some horror, some thriller, some alien infestation. It's all there intertwined with a thread woven between them.
From the book description: Author's note: this book is intended for mature audiences. It contains graphic violence, zombies, sex with snake creatures, black magic, global warming, gambling, eugenics, invisible friends, aliens, demons, and of course vultures.
For science fiction and horror fans only, Desolation: Stories contains all 19 of Ken Brosky's horror, fantasy and science-fiction stories in one collection.

This review is from: Desolation: Stories (Kindle Edition)
Slightly dark view of a doomed future is a minor connecting thread for this assortment of short stories. Read while on the train commute and certainly worth the entertainment. A minor gripe is the too frequent editing errors, misplaced words, extra words, wrong words.

Do I recommend it?
If it's free and you need to kill some non-quality time. Get it. Otherwise it's not a $10 book.
