Zippered Flesh: Tales of Body Enhancements Gone Bad! by Weldon Burge

4.0

This collection contains 20 stories, and I very much enjoyed 12 of them. All of them referenced some kind of body surgery, decoration or modification.

These were the stories that stood out for me:

Bootstrap-The Binds of Lasolastica by Michael Bailey. 4*
This made me think of rebooting differently.

Idol by Michael Laimo. 4* It would be nice to have some spare body parts around in case I needed them.

Comfort by Charles Colycott. All my notes say is "freaky"!

Unplugged by Adrienne Jones. 4* A leave of absence from work leads to a strange discovery.

You With Me by Christopher Nadeau. 4* This one reminded me of an old Stephen King collection cover from the 80's.

The Shaping by Scott Nicholson. 5* This one kicks ass! Competition in school can be tough.

By Hook by Elliot Capon. 5* My note just says AWESOME!

Sawbones by L.L. Soares. 5* Body modifications never thought of!

Whirling Machine Man by Aaron French. 4* Crazy!

Sex Object by Graham Masterton. 4* Anyone who has read any Graham Masterton would not be shocked by this story.

Hearing Mildred by Weldon Burge. 5*. This was my favorite story of this collection. An odd tale of what must be the worst haunting EVER. Plus, it's hilarious!

I am going to check out other works by some of these authors, most especially Mr. Burge.
