What to expect
We all come to the fork in the road many times every day, every week. What was your last fork and where did the road lead? Choice, Chance, and Repercussion face each of us when we decide to go left or right. Reflecting later was it a good or poor choice? Did it yield wealth or disaster? Should we have taken greater care?
These 25 stories examine those possibilities in various genres: general, romance, adventure, mystery, crime, fable, and fantasy—whatever your leaning you will find something to your taste here. Many of the stories follow the characters down the second fork and in some cases, even a third one.
The author hopes you enjoy the stories and are well satisfied with the journeys taken.
Critics Review
-
“So very rarely does one find a writer with a truly identifiable style. I spend my life looking for writers that make me think, ‘I wish I’d written that,’ [as] in the numerous stories from Eric Drysdale…Insightful, engaging, and altogether very human, the prose has a rhythm and clarity that elevates these tales above so many others. I, for one, highly recommend these works, and I have no doubt you will enjoy them just as much as me.”
R. J. Ellory, award-winning, international bestselling author of A Quiet Belief in Angels and other novels
