Every one likes a good cheap thrill, but if you enjoy quality schadenfreude you'll love the tightly wound tales found between the covers of ECR number four. Number Four: The elemental number: Earth-wind-fire-books...I mean air. Four is the tetrad...the perfect number...a number for all mankind. These stories pulse with realism as they swing wildly between genres and bring you the joy in other people's pain. The one, the only Rex Weiner kicks things off with a fantastic peek into realistic crime and punishment; and the one, the only, A.B. Patterson closes the show with the most transgressive thing I've read outside a public lavatory. Everyone in between brings vivid, pulse pumping action and suspense mixed nicely with severe moments of WTH. ECR #4 proudly features the authors: Mark Slade, Jon Zelazny, Robert Petyo, Hailey Piper, Matthew X. Gomez, Mark Slade, J.L. Boekenstein, Hatebreaker, J.S. Rogers, and C.W. Blackwell.
