If you’re in the mood for a hearty stew of stories to feed your cravings for the bizarre, the wondrous, and
the macabre, take a stroll through the twisted visions of An Unsettled Score.
Praise includes:
"... a wild ride. These are dark and creepy tales, with a touch of surrealism, and more than a touch of twisted humor ... a master craftsman ... terse and distilled—not a word or sentence is wasted ... dialogue that rings true, regardless of character or setting ... fresh and surprising. What a rich and mysterious imagination this author has." --David G Moore, author, Kings Canyon, Stick People, and Harpies
“... a rich feast for the science fiction and horror fan. His stories, poems and longer fiction offer enough variety to satisfy everyone with a taste for the bizarre, the offbeat and the truly terrifying ... very reminiscent of the works of the famed science fiction/horror writer Ray Bradbury (The Martian Chronicles) and display the same sense of carefully twisted reality that the master writer is known for ... truly outstanding in terms of rising suspense ... an intricate journey into an incredible world to reveal what it means to be human, as well as inhuman ... an engrossing dynamic that combines slowly unraveling details with throat-gripping action. It’s a daring combo that makes DelGuercio’s prose stand out from that of many other fantasy writers. For all those who favor horror and science fiction – and all areas in between or intermingled – the stories in this collection will open new pathways of frightening discovery.
--Megan Davidson, Author of Once a Rogue and The Thundering
"... also a writer in the classical sense. His work is timeless. He doesn't rely on any flavor-of-the-month tropes or ripped-from-the-headlines topics. Nearly any Christopher DelGuercio story that you read today will age well and be just as good five, ten years down the road. He writes the kind of stories that endure." --Linda Lowen, book reviewer for a leading industry magazine
