by Edward Lorn
Full disclosure: I got this audiobook as a gift from Lorn from this post here which he offered to counter the audiobook returns that he details here. Lorn and I do know each other, and I've rated his books with... varying ratings. I believe he's read enough of my reviews to know I'm pretty blunt...
Disclaimer: I am friends with this author on GR and BL, that hasn't affected my ability to rate and review this book honestly and critically.9/1 - 3.5 stars. The science was a little sketchy and hard to believe, but I really enjoyed the blood and gore and horror. I wish it had been longer to make mo...
Johann Schmidt is seeking funding for his latest genetic experiment. His fundraising speech to a group of wealthy atheists doesn’t go over so well, but he does get invited to have a private chat with renowned scientist Eliot Von Lennon. Eliot Von Lennon’s assistant, Claire Jacobs, is the first to br...
This had many of the Lorny things that make me like Lorn's stuff: character descriptions and situations that catch you by surprise and force a double-take, inventive violence, and crisp, forward-leaning writing.

I've been wanting to read one of Edward Lorn's books for a while now and I have actually bought a couple of them but I just hadn't found the time to read any of them yet. Then I saw a review for No Such Thing and realized it was a short story so I thought it would be the perfect way to try out his ...
No one was interested in Johan Schmidt's research into human parthenogenesis. No one until Eliot Von Lennon...This one was another freebie from that Lorn boy.This short story from Edward Lorn reminds me of an episode of the outer limits. A millionaire hires a scientist to do something for him and it...
This enjoyable short story opens with Johan Schmidt trying to raise money from a room of investors. Things go poorly for him until one of the investors approaches him and asks him to meet with her boss who has a very interesting opportunity for him, even if it sounds outrageous. I'll leave it at tha...
This story was given to me as a surprise gift. I received a message on BookLikes that said simply: "I sent you something." I'm all "What?!?!" then went and checked my emails and there it was. See, Edward knows that I will read anything that he writes AND that I will be brutally honest about it. ...
