Download or read book Short Stories to Go Book 1 written by AL Walsh and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2023-03-31 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Short Stories to Go: Book 1 consists of a collection of stories that can be appreciated in their entirety, in a single sitting, or enjoyed one story at a time. This trilogy was assembled from many years of random writings and the stories were selected more for their differences than for their similarities. The content addresses scenarios that range from the unfortunate to the unexpected and concludes with the impossible. This book begins with a fact-based dramatization of a tragic love story which owes its unfortunate outcome to the slow and untrustworthy word-of-mouth communications channels that prevailed in many parts of the world during the early 20th century. This emotional tale of love and loss is followed by a completely fictional account that encompasses a farm town’s battle with Mother Nature, as viewed through the eyes of three young storm chasers who have been sponsored by a Canadian university. This exciting adventure leads into an entirely imaginative and enticing science fiction drama which hopefully leaves you, the reader, looking for more.
