Reviews / Votes
I see threads and glimmers of almost any good writer I could name, and, of course, originality of vision, of technique, of language...and characters I've never before seen or even imagined. Allen's is a career I will follow with both great hope and great expectation. - Reginald McKnight; ""Stephanie Allen is a writer who gets down to business, right in the first paragraph, and one who wastes few, if any, words. Her stories are beautifully shaped. Once she gets your attention, she holds it."" - Steve YarbroughMore details
