What they're saying about this book on Goodreads:"These aren't zombie, monster horror stories. These are horror stories on a human scale...and thus all that more terrifying.""I will be looking out more of Tim Jeffrey's work...it is exquiste.""...The Well...managed to chill me more in its single page then many horror books have done in several hundred times that.""This collection of nine tales has a little something for everyone, from pure horror, magic and mayhem to psychological torment and inner turmoil. Each of the tales has a little something different and are all superbly written, packing a hell of a lot into few words (very few in some cases).""...a really enjoyable book. It's not the sort of book to recommend to the faint hearted, there are plenty of sexy bits (which I wouldn't want my mum reading) as well as some good cliffhangers.""All in all a good variety of well written and well edited enjoyment." Review from The Horror Zine:"The Haunted Grove by Tim Jeffreys is a collection of nine tales of terror has something for everyone. There are short shorts and long shorts, with storylines from the straightforward to the surreal. Themes range from the near-SF tone of “Three Winters”, through the mental powers of “The Thought She Blurted Out” to the magic of the title story. As a showcase of the author’s versatility, this collection serves its purpose well.The characters in The Haunted Grove are believable throughout the stories and their nature varies from story to story. The settings are clear, objects are well described, and it’s easy to see what’s happening. I found myself easily and readily immersed in Jeffrey’s writing.Overall, the quality is good, the writing is good, the stories are good, the cover art is good, and there really isn’t anything to pick at from a reviewer’s point of view. The Haunted Grove is a worthy addition to anyone’s collection." Review from The Horrorzine.
