An Old World Holiday Touch

A friend of mine actually recently wrote a post on her blog about the characters that are included in this short story.Here's a link over to her post entitled The Naughty List (that's part of why I was willing to read it, I was curious to find out how it pans out).

Krampus : A Christmas Tale
Ed Kurtz
17 pages

The story itself is actually fairly fast paced. It merges the idea of an old world grandma and a youth of today fairly well. The authors starting scenario is believable, even if the ending seems very exaggerated. It's a wee bit gruesome as well.

It's definitely a change from some of the other more mushy sweet Christmas stories. After all not everyone is looking for a fluffy story to read. Anyway, that's a short note on a short.

Work's had me busy, so I haven't been reading multiple shorts all at one time. So sadly, you'll have to put up with a small read today. I'll work on making sure to have some things posted earlier on tomorrow, but it'll likely still just be one thing. Thanks for stopping by!
