"I really loved this book. Although it is a collection of short stories they all blend together because of Mr. Alvey's involvement and that makes them flow like a novel. I want go into each story, just know they were all amazing and well written by a very interesting author. Great book, I can't wait to read more from this author.." -  P. S. Winn, Amazon review

 

"A must-read for any WDB fans! Ridley opened this anthology with an interview that will make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up and an even bigger reaction in your brain to continue on reading." - Heather C. Cox, Amazon review 

 

"I loved this book even more than Mr. Ridley’s previous one, Tomorrow Wendell, which BTW is also about Jonathan Alvey and is super awesome! I absolutely loved all the stories and will re-read them very soon (yes, it’s that good!) All the stories are unique and adventurous. They are sure to give any reader an ultimate paranormal-high." - The Reading Bud, blog review

"The plot hooks you from the first chapter and the pace continues to gain momentum ... the action and interesting creatures keep you reading and wondering until the very end." -  Kaitlyn Rockwell, Amazon review

 

"The story drew me in quickly, as Ridley has built a diverse and interesting world that is full of surprises. He paced the story well and kept me on the edge of my seat as I waited to see how the whole thing would play out. ... I would definitely recommend this ...." - jamiebmusings, Amazon review 

 

"With characters that are relatable, action that will have you rubbing your own stomach and ribs in sympathy, quirks that make him utterly likable, and an ending that will blow you away, this was one heck of a start to a series." - A_TiffyFit, Amazon review

 

"What a story... constantly pulled you forward begging you to read the next sentence ... I loved all of the creatures who helped and hurt along the way and watching the growth of the characters over the three day span of the story was unbelievable. I think RM Ridley hit the nail on the head with this one." - Books, Barkers ‘n’ Brownies, blog review

"Blink the Blood Away" by R.M. Ridley is a very short but effectively chilling story about a man that can't seem to get images of violence and death out of his mind. The story follows closely with the main character and the reader is carried along on his torrent of mental anguish as he tries to separate reality from fantasy. The story comes full circle with a gruesome and solemn ending that sends chills down the spine." ---  Nancy O. Greene, Amazon review

 

"For me, the stories that stand out were (in ToC order): A.C. Wise - "Teeth"; C. Michael Cook - "The Living World"; Jeff Strand - "The Apocalypse Ain't So Bad"; R.M. Ridley - "Blink The Blood Away."* Any one of these is worth seeking out to read."  - Bernie Mojzes, Goodreads review

" All these authors need to keep on writing. I really enjoyed the haunting stories." - Wendy B. Nystrom, Amazon review

 

"In the case of “Shades and Shadows”, my overall impression is: The hits win. ...especial favorites included ... R.M. Ridley’s “Cost of Custody” - Danielle E. Shipley, Amazon review

 

"Long story short, I utterly adored this. All of the stories are excellently written, ...  the much darker "Cost of Custody" (which, by the way, was one of my favourites)." - Nick B, Amazon review
