The Sea Was a Fair Master
by Calvin Demmer, Gwendolyn Kiste
dark
fast-paced
"On these dark-blue waves, it is the sea who is judge, jury, and executioner. This is another realm, where forgiveness doesn't exist as on land and where spirits do not find freedom among the clouds. Here, they ride the currents of forever."
The Sea Was A Fair Master comprises of 23 short stories ranging from horror to fantasy to sci-fi. This was my first time reading a collection of flash fiction where the stories ranged from 2-10 pages. Each story tackled different themes like death, love, grief, murder, revenge, and greed. With so few words, Demmer managed to evoke some kind of emotion within each story. My favourites included:
🦈 Restroom Finds
🦈 Voodoo Child
🦈 The Snakes or The Humans?
🦈 Hangman
🦈 Graves
🦈 Noisy Neighbours
Let's be real, this is a solid collection and hard to narrow down my favourites to a few because they were all amazing (also I kind of forgot what some of them were about) 😅 I definitely recommend this book!
