The moment I opened it up and read his introduction I knew I'd be disappointed it consisted of a few grammatical errors and that awful formatting I referred to earlier.Īll I can say is that I hope the other two collections are vast improvements over this one. Robertson has a handful of books/collections published, so to see how poorly this one was handled saddened me right from the start. There are no page numbers, stories stop and start in odd places and leave strange gaps in between pages, and the whole collection is full of spelling and grammatical errors.ģ)Mr. Amateurs are constantly striving to break out in collections like these, but of the dozen stories I read none made me think, "Man, this is someone I need to look out for in the future."Ģ)The formatting was atrocious. The stories I read were all either incredibly cliche events or were simply meant to gross the reader out and went no further beyond that initial disgust. As I did not finish, I will keep it short and give three simple reasons why.ġ)The writing almost across the board is subpar. I was very excited about it and the two collections that follow it based off of: 1) the wickedly cool cover art 2) the fact that it was an opportunity to find new and exciting authors and 3) because a good deal of the stuff being published through small presses or getting self published is actually quite good.
