Ratings and reviews

This short story collection will make you feel all the things. It's full of the surprise twists & shocking endings readers have come to expect from O'Flynn. Each story is unique and the characters are well developed, especially given the short format. If you like dark and twisty reads, check out Listeners today.

O'Flynn's short stories are just as dark and twisty as her novels. Alien Landscape is probably my favorite in this collection--it reads like pure horror but has an undercurrent of heartbreaking metaphor. Each story has its own distinct personality, its own unique twist. It's impossible to predict the endings.

This collection of short stories has some interesting premises and twists. Each story has a different stylistic approach which I enjoyed. The thing I love most about this author and her short stories is nothing is ever what it seems and every one of her stories is unique. If you are looking for something out of the box, I would suggest Listeners.
