Asylum Archives Case Study Vol.1: True Accounts From The Insane by David Farland, Jaron Briggs, Richard Dutcher
2.0
A small selection of thought provoking tales.
For some reason I thought this book might actually be set in an asylum, but it isn't. It's just three tales surrounding hard to explain situations.
On reflection, I don't think the title really holds to the actual stories. I would very much hesitate to call the stories "accounts from the insane". While they do reflect different ways that the brain and emotional and mental health can decive someone I feel that it's less dramatic than the title leads you to belive.
2.5 stars for feeling misled. 3 starts for the stories themselves. They were interesting enough for me to finish, at least.
