Summary: An Interesting Collection
Comment: I read this book on summer vacation as well, and I enjoyed it. The twelve stories moved quickly, were fun to read, and easy to digest. I found them interesting, and not boring at all. I am an avid "Twilight Zone" fan, and I enjoyed the fact that a couple of the stories were definitely inspired by the old show. In fact, I would have liked more, since only two or three fit that description. And in contrast to the previous review, I know that old series very well, and none of the storylines were lifted. In this day and age, it is very frustrating to watch television and see the same tired old things (i.e. the rogue cop who plays by his own rules; the person selling their soul to satan; endless remakes of bad sixties TV shows, etc.). This book, while definitely a first effort, provided some fresh things, and for that it was worth the time and effort.

Summary: Interesting Effort - Very Enjoyable.
Comment: This was an enjoyable book. I read it in an afternoon, and it was humorous and interesting. My favorites were "Bloody Memorabilia" and "The Television." I look forward to more work from this author.

Summary: Simply, The Best Book I've Read in Years
Comment: OUTSTANDING: Murder Over Dinner is by far, the best book I've read in years. He's Orwell, Irving and Paterson wrapped in one neat package. Intriguing stories, coupled with constant laughs. People on my flight were wondering what was making me laugh so hard. Many times, I thought I knew where Taylor was sending me in his story only to find a last minute twist to make me shake my head. It's so good I ordered three more copies to give to my friends. Such an incredible story teller, I can't wait for his next book.
