Paul Kane has another winner on his hands with Snow. (10/10 Clive Barker Podcast) RED not only tips its hat to 'Little Red Riding Hood, ' but 'Peter and The Wolf, ' and 'Who's Afraid of The Big Bad Wolf?' and every werewolf type motif in between... Kane does an incredible job of combining horror and humour into one tasty morsel. (Cemetery Dance Magazine) Who's Been...? starts off as a Ken Loach-updated version of Goldilocks, all kitchen sink and unemployed alcoholics. But as the story closes in, the horror aspect kicks into gear, where Kane walks that fine line between real and supernatural horror. (Dark Horizons) Compact of length and cinematic in scope, Sleeper(s) contains just enough punch for this reviewer to seek out the further works of Paul Kane. (Hellnotes) Sin the references to the film Seven add a nice touch of style to the storyline. This excellent and surprising story is one of the highlights in this collection and will impress many readers... Highly recommended! (Rising Shadow)
