Mr. Gaunt and Other Uneasy Encounters

Patti Reinheimer

I loved The Fisherman so much I immediately sought out all three volumes of Langan’s short fiction. That may have been a hasty decision. I finished this book, but it took me forever and it felt like a slog. There were a couple of very nice stories here, but overall it just wasn’t all that satisfying.
