People Fear the Dark for a Reason

A compendium of four grim, terror-inducing tales. Get your copy today

Out in the darkness, the demons and horrors of our imagination become all too real. Of those brave enough to leave the light and plunge into the world’s dark corners, none come back unchanged. Some don’t come back at all. Four Corners Dark offers up four very different tales of places where the darkness lingers, tempting you to step into the unknown.

In these tales by storyteller William McNally, a group of Mexican immigrants place their trust in the wrong coyote, or human smuggler, only to find their very souls at risk. A huckster with the ability to escape trouble by jumping realities discovers he may have made one jump too many. Two proud new homeowners find out too late they share their property with the ghost of a vengeful witch, and one man’s love for his son leads to a decision that changes both their destinies.

It’s easy to be brave in the light, protected by our warm, comforting electric light bulbs or the warmth of the sun. Only in the darkness do we discover the limits of our courage. Step out of the light, and into the stories of Four Corners Dark.

5,0 su 5 stelle This guy knows how to write

This is a really great book. I had been in a reading slump for awhile and I started this book on my Kindle and couldn't put it down. I wish there was more from the third and the fourth story I could of gone farther with those stories. The first two stories were ok but once I started the third story it was on from there. The last story could of taken an epic turn if it would have continued on I could of seen the character creating the carnival create many other places and it would have been so cool. The Raven Mocker the third story could of gone on to be a longer story it would have been interesting to see what would happen next if it continued on. This author really knows how to grab your attention. I enjoyed this book so much I went on to get the next 2 books I have already started book 2 and I also have book 3 I cant wait to read them all. I like this author's style of writing and stories. Awesome writing.

I've got to stop downloading these short story compilations. I always find them slow, the stories too simple.

4,0 su 5 stelle Well-Named Collection of Four Dark Tales!
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 5 novembre 2012

"Four Corners Dark" by William McNally is a collection of short stories that could not be better named. There are four stories in the book, and each is dark, somewhat depressing, and certainly melancholy. At the same time, they are extremely well-crafted stories. They are so good individually that I feel compelled to say something about each one.

First up is "Engine 18", a gripping narrative about a "coyote" helping smuggle desperate people across the border into the U.S. The story has demonic overtones that are deliberately revealed as the tale unfolds.

Next is "Return to Nowhere" about a man who inadvertently discovered that he cannot die - or at least he cannot STAY dead. Each time he gets himself in a bind, he jumps off a bridge and comes back to an entirely different life. Sometimes his new life is better than the one he just left, but fate finally catches up with him in the end.

The third tale is a novella called "The Raven Mocker". It delves into paranormal consequences set in motion over a century earlier, when the local Native American tribe agreed to let miners and loggers onto their land, if they would first kill a witch known as The Raven Mocker. But witches don't always stay dead. This one was really, really good at holding a grudge, and could assume just about any form to further her deeds of revenge. I don't believe there were any winners in this tale.

Finally, the book closes with "The Spinning Wheel" which is at once sad and uplifting. A widower ponders who will care for his 44 year old Down's syndrome son, after his own doctor tells him he has Alzheimer's. His remaining family and friends are all too old to assume such responsibility, and he wiped out his life savings as his wife unsuccessfully fought cancer a few years prior. But he failed to consider what a little magic might accomplish.

"Four Corners Dark" is a book well worth having. I urge you to get a copy and see if you don't find yourself being drawn into the stories. This is one of those infrequent books you'll want to read over again, perhaps several times. So what are you waiting for?

3,0 su 5 stelle Good premise with room for better writing

I always feel like I'm gambling when I pick up a Kindle book from a less known author. The ebook market in general is a double edged sword in that many great authors can pick up readership but it also has made it easier for the market to be flooded with sub par works or what feels like unfinished works.

McNally's work rests somewhere between feeling sup par and rushed. The premise of the stories has such promise but the writing kills any immersive quality it might have and therefor the enjoyment of them. Much of the writing feels rushed and choppy which makes the stories difficult to get through and for the first story it makes it hard to really understand what is happening in the story.

Overall, McNally shows promise as a writer but could benefit from some tough editing and multiple rewrites before publishing his work.
