The Chaos Clock: Tales of Cosmic Aether edited by Danielle Ackley-McPhail – Review by Sheri Schrader

The Chaos Clock by Danielle Ackley-McPhail
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Chaos Clock: Tales of Cosmic Aether is an anthology of 14 stories by 13 authors focusing on the common themes of clocks and time. The stories use a steampunk theme, influenced by HP Lovecraft and HG Wells. I was drawn in by the authors who influenced the stories and hoped for something different and exciting. The Anthology contains:
-The Birth of Mechanical Things
By: Maxwell I. Gold
-The Thirteenth Hour
By: Heidi Silverman

By: Danielle Ackley-McPhail

I was not disappointed and will look for more to read by authors with stories in the anthology. The stories took me away from my day-to-day stressors and took me into different times and spaces. I especially enjoyed the stories from Danielle Ackley-McPhail, Rachel A. Brune, and James Chambers. All of the stories flowed from one to next easily with links in themes and stories.
