review:

'The Dimension Scales and Other Stories' is a collection of short stories by Garry Abbott. The stories reminded me of The Twilight Zone and some of the short stories of Philip K. Dick. That means I liked them quite a bit.



There is an accidental time traveller, a woman whose family intervenes between her and her unconventional lover, a creepy garden patch and a man trapped in a strange experiment with only a pencil and an Etch A Sketch. My favorite story might be Cry Again Army about cryogenics and a woman trapped in a marriage she no longer wants to be in. But it's hard to pick a favorite.



There is some interlinking between stories, and that's fun to discover. The stories were all pretty good and I look forward to reading more by this author.



I was given a review copy of this ebook by Garry Abbott and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this engaging short story collection.
