This book contains 101 bite-sized horror stories that are intended to scare and unsettle you. These are real peoples' accounts of the creepy and the occult - of their near-misses with madmen and paranormal entities. Each chapter is a short, stand alone campfire tale, a retelling of a frightening or gruesome incident that has stuck with the teller, something that gives them pause to this day when they find themselves alone in the dark. These stories have been collected with the knowledge that real life is scarier than fiction.

Don't pay for this, but goes through time
Revisado: 01-02-24
I like the short stories; however, I would like to have seen them be a little bit longer and less repetitive, but nonetheless served it's purpose.

Ex-CIA master assassin Court Gentry has always prided himself on his ability to disappear at will, to fly below the radar and exist in the shadows - to survive as the near-mythical Gray Man. But when he takes revenge upon a former employer who betrayed him, he exposes himself to something he’s never had to face before. A killer who is just like him. Code-named Dead Eye, Russell Whitlock is a graduate of the same ultra-secret Autonomous Asset Program that trained and once controlled Gentry.

nowhere near as good as the previous book
Revisado: 04-03-16
this book was a drastic departure from the previous book as the center plot line was nowhere near as well developed. what does book lacked was a central theme that justified the main character's existence.

On December 13, 1944, POW Estel Myers was herded aboard the Japanese prison ship, the Oryoku Maru, with more than 1,600 other American captives. More than 1,100 of them would be dead by journey's end... The son of a Kentucky sharecropper and an enlistee in the Navy's medical corps, Myers arrived in Manilla shortly before the bombings of Pearl Harbor and the other six targets of the Imperial Japanese military.

Any additional comments?
The book is a bit bipolar in that in the middle of the story, the narrator goes off about general information about the war in the pacific. It makes me, as the reader, loose connection with the protagonist as it feels abstract. If the protagonist introduced the information that would be different. I would say the book is 50/50, 50% about the protagonists life and 50% general information.
If this book was broken up into two sections, one about the war, and another about the narrative, that would be great. Yet, as it stands, it is a bit difficult to stay invested in the character when the book keeps switching from historical to biographical.
