Jack of all Trades by Jack Wells

Jack of all Trades by Jack Wells was received directly from the publisher and I chose to review it. I had never read this author before and I will search out some of his others works. This book rarely had any slow moments (there were a few though). The seven stories kind of worked around one central story, with short stories about a Victorian novella of death, intrigue, and forbidden experiments, a short story of seduction in the heartland of post-WWII America, a short story of mass murder in the City of Angels, a short story of addiction and regret in the Appalachian Mountains. There were also stories about savagery on the high seas, a story of dark discovery in the snowy peaks of Norway, and a novelette of spirits and six-shooters in the Wild West. If you, or someone you buy gifts for enjoys reading shorter stories, give this book a read.
