Average Customer Rating: 3.5 (4 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: Excellence Unsurpassed
Comment: Not the sound bites one would expect from short shorts. Fully fleshed stories that don't impinge on poetry's domaine, but conform beautifully to the structure, tone and nuance of the genre.
Rating: 2
Summary: pretty mediocre
Comment: I bought this because I love, absolutely love the first 'Sudden Fiction' book. ...Continued is a pretty weak followup in terms of pushing the envelope of the 'short-short story'. Most of the stories in this collection run fairly long and most aren't particularly striking. Perhaps these should have been restrained to 1000-1500 words instead of 2000. Go run and buy the first one, "Sudden Fiction", then read ...Continued if you really want to.
Rating: 3
Summary: Short Stories, Life-long Lessons
Comment: I liked Sudden Fiction Continued because it kept my interest. The stories come in many varities, from death to helping others.There's a lesson to be learned from all of the stories. One of my favorites was Videotape by Don Delillo, about a commercial on tv that shows a man driving down the road and is all of a sudden shot in the head by the Texas Highway Killer, which the author found to be alarming. I thought the author did a good job on keeping me glued to reading on and finishing the story. This book kind of reminds me of Chicken Soup for the Soul, but the stories are a lot shorter. Overall, it was touching, making you think twice about your actions.
