“These stories take you by the hand and lead you into a place where logic is turned on edge and the familiar casts a shadow where something weird dwells.

Short Story Lovers, Rejoice! [ No Rating ] 10 Jun 2009

by Doc Phillips

"Life, Death and Other Dysfunctions" is a short story lover's delight! Each is written in the first person and in such a way so as to take the reader by the hand and guide him/her through the respective narratives. I found this book to be a thorough joy to read. All so well-constructed and executed on the page that only the message of each is left to the reader. Some may shock you and some will surprise. While others have a definite moral to consider. I assure you that once you begin reading "Life, Death and Other Dysfunctions" you will not want to put it down. It is a unique collection that, I believe, belongs in everyone's library.

I am an avid reader. This book by far, is at the top of my list of favorites. If you haven't read it yet, you must. I didn't want it to end.

One might think that a book dealing with death and life’s dysfunctions would be morbid. But, Larry deals with his subject matter in a manner that is straight forward, honest and engaging. His writing style is comfortable and concise.

I enjoyed each story, but the one about Stormy was my favorite.

I just finished Larry Thomlinson's book, "Life, Death and Other Dysfunctions," and I'm telling you, it was a great read. The man can write. He says most of the stories are made up...but they seemed real to me. He tells some wild tales. You better read this one. Mike Flynn Siloam Springs AR

Mr. Thomlinson's stories bring a unique and intriguing point of view into partnership with original, well-defined characters and a writing style that grips you by the hand to take you places you never knew existed. Very enjoyable!

Larry Thomlinson is an excellent writer! His short stories are so descriptive and vivid. Although some of the stories about death can easily appear a bit gloomy or depressing, he's managed to overcome somber story lines with sharp, colorful prose.

I can visualize many of these stories coming from the mind of Rod Serling or Steven King!
