More Thorns than Roses

This is H A Howe's second collection of fictional stories dealing with fears and tragedies, and although often interwoven with a humorous thread, they do highlight the darker side of life. In her belief that short stories should be able to captivate the reader just as much as longer novels, this new collection does not disappoint. As Herbert Kretzmer, OBE (journalist and lyricist) said of her previous work, 'H A Howe's chief asset is a capacity to draw the reader in to the tales, making the reader eager to know what happens next'.

True to her style, H A Howe likes to surprise the reader – so expect the unexpected.
