MONSTER TOWN REVIEW / THE BUTCHER OF BOX HILL REVIEW - Robert Brouhard - horrordrive-in.com
“Monster Town” feels like a private detective noir story at first. Complete with the mysterious hot dame hiring a man to do something. It eventually evolves into what could be interpreted as a horror version of a Mission Impossible movie. It has a lot of action and very snappy writing. I laughed a little too loudly on more than one occasion while reading this tale. Some of the humor is just plain fun. Some of it is very un-politically correct. You want an example of the humor? Sure, here you go: JD runs into a couple of hookers in an alley… zombie hookers who offer him a ahem “good time.” JD responds to the offer-he-can-refuse with, “Thanks ladies, but I prefer my women to have a pulse…Though having said that, I did have sex with my ex-wife… so what the hell do I know." You may choose to read these stories as an allegory of some modern political prisoner news story or even concentration camps of the Holocaust, and that wouldn’t necessarily be a bad thing to do…. But please don’t get bogged down in that. It is not the purpose of these stories. This book is F-U-N, and not a High School literature class assignment.I really enjoyed these fast paced stories, and I am very happy that there’s a full-length novel coming soon (details are unknown at this time). Stories that you experience almost more than just read are favorites of mine. "

MONSTER TOWN REVIEW / THE BUTCHER OF BOX HILL REVIEW - Colleen Wanglund - The Horror Fiction Review
"THE BUTCHER OF BOX HILL and MONSTER TOWN are written as two separate stories, but follow a clear, single thread. BOX HILL was a good tale, but I felt it could have easily been incorporated into the larger, more interesting MONSTER TOWN. MONSTER TOWN is about a city like any other, with a mixed population, tourism, crime, gang warfare, poverty, and racism—the humans don’t like the monsters, but even different races of monsters don’t like each other...Overall, I thought the story was a good one—full of monsters and a lot of fun. Steven Savile and Brian M Logan tell a good story without taking themselves too seriously, evidenced by the use of a well-known (at least by my generation) movie quote that is cheesy, but funny. The book also contains some beautiful artwork by Darryl Elliott."
