Raves for Trips to the Edge
I loved these stories, some of which are utterly chilling! Short story writing is a real art, and Diane Wing has the knack for it. Even when I could sorta guess where the stories were headed, I was gripped to keep reading. Brava!
--Kirsten Weiss, author, Witches of Doyle series
Diane Wing has such a unique writing voice and always adds a little bit of darkness to her tales which never fails to capture my attention from the get go. Whether it be my sense of whimsy she captures with her imaginative writings of mythical creatures and other realms or my love of being creeped out with her ominous plot twists, I can't seem to get enough! Plus, if you've read any of her work, she tends to include in her stories something....more; a lesson that needs to be learned perhaps or possibly just a deeper meaning hidden behind seemingly simple things like a walk in the park, a winding road that dead ends, or a new restaurant. Either way the reader comes away not only entertained by the story itself but also with their own personal line of thinking somewhat transformed. If you enjoy metaphysical or scifi related books I highly suggest this quick and easy read!
--Kayle Potega, The Eclectic Element
Prepare yourself for some chilling late night indulgence: Diane Wing continues to serve up tasty, elegant tales of spiritual mayhem and revenge with a modern flare. It's all included - hair raising action, mystical quandaries, chilling surprises, karmic debts and unexpected twists of fate. A must read for all true lovers of the supernatural.
--M. Ashcraft, Oakland, California
Diane Wing's stories lead you to one seemingly obvious conclusion, and then she throws a flaming curve ball you slowly recover from. She sucks me in and as soon as I think I have it figured out, she turns the story in an unexpected direction, leaving me with chills and the sense that the world is not always as it seems.
--Antoinette Brickhaus Philadelphia, PA
Trips to the Edge is surely that! Visually mesmerizing and breathtaking. If Pink Floyd, the Grateful Dead, and Led Zeppelin wrote a book together, it would read like Trips to the Edge.
--Annette Sadelson, Baltimore, MD
