Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.
Much like film noir, Justin Robinson was born and raised in Los Angeles. He splits his time between editing comic books, writing prose, and wondering what that disgusting smell is. Degrees in Anthropology and History prepared him for unemployment, but an obsession with horror fiction and a laundry list of phobias provided a more attractive option. He is the author of ten novels in a variety of genres including detective, humor, urban fantasy, and horror. Most of them are pretty good.

Hey Survivor! My name is Sylvester Barzey and I am a best selling horror and fantasy author. I grew up in Bronx, NY, lived in the smallest state in the country for a while and then transplanted to Lawrence, GA.
I’m a military veteran with an addiction to all things horror. My overall goal is to shine a spotlight on BIPOC characters within the horror/fantasy genre. From a young age I was obsessed with horror movies, mostly slashers. The mythos of the “Final Girl” trope was always something that appealed to me. The act of taking someone and watching them overcome the greatest odds to be the ultimate survivor has been a strong attraction to the horror for me.
But, what I didn’t realize growing up was all these survivors were White. Seeing only one type of person rise, builds blocks within people’s minds, it causes them to think that surviving is a trait only in one race, which is far from the truth. The Black community (Black Women for sure) have survival built into their DNA. History has shown us that overcoming great odds is something Black people have always done.
Being that I couldn’t find the final girls I was looking for (There are some don’t get me wrong and they are amazing), I set out to create them. I want to produce Black heroes who overcome world shattering events and rise above them. My goal is for people to say Catherine Briggs’ name in the same breath as they say Sidney Prescott and Laurie Strode. It’s my mission to change horror so that my children can look at it and see themselves as survivors.

A bibliophile and self-admitted crazy person who argues with the characters in her head on a daily basis, as if they’re friends.

She loves camping with family and has just figured out how to cook the perfect S’more, and has the burn marks to prove it. Her quirky sense of humor and sarcasm bleeds through in her writing, drawing laughter in inappropriate places. You’re gonna get odd looks… just saying. She loves visiting with readers about her book or any books for that matter, so please reach out!

How will you handle the end of the world?

Seven vastly different takes on the seven sins and the Apocalypse. The majority were very good, a few had some editing issues and the final story cost the book a five star review due to poor editing and very stilted dialog. I loved Kate L Mary's story, Greed Comes Knocking, a stunning example of the way people may change when it comes down to the fight for survival. Kodiak was also great. One of the stories seemed like it was taken from a book I read a few years ago and I have mixed feelings about it's message regarding rape. Hollow Sanctuary was also very good....Be careful what you wish for. The stories I liked made it worth the purchase price, we all have different tastes so I am sure others will like some that I was not as impressed with.

After finding out that one of my favorite zombie authors (she writes about zombies, she isn't one herself, lol), Kate L. Mary, had a story in this collection, it immediately got added to my list for my #31daysofhorrorreads challenge. These seven short stories all take place in an apocalyptic world, the Apocalypse taking many different forms depending on the author. Each tale focuses on a different deadly sin (wrath, gluttony, envy, greed, lust, sloth and pride). While some were quite good, most notably Greed Comes Knocking, others seemed disjointed and rapidly thrown together, as if the author was racing a deadline. Some of the tales lacked editing, and the storylines and characters just didn't gel with me. While a few of these stories may have been four-star on their own, the collection itself can only settle for ⭐⭐⭐.

Take seven different authors, the seven deadly sins, mix in the apocalypse for good measure and the end result is a good collection of tales. Some of the tales were well written and very interesting while others felt like the author reallydidnt give their best. All in all it is a collection that I feel is worth your time I'd you are interested in life after an apocolyptic event.

I picked up this book because I’m a fan of apoc stories, and have read other stories by some of the authors in this collection. I expected a strong showing, but OMG WAS I BLOWN AWAY. These are some of the most interesting & vivid tales i’ve read in a long time about the apocalypse.
I wasn’t disappointed and neither will you be after reading this collection. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to read these again.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 21, 2020

So this batch of stories related to the seven sins, seven stories for seven sins. All right. That’s a great concept, but in reality, they just didn’t come together well. I wouldn't recommend this collection to anyone.

I love reading and looking for mistakes, although my endgame is to read a book with very few to no mistakes. Given these are all short stories, I was surprised I came across so many mistakes… per story. Let me rephrase, a lot of obvious-to-anyone-that-reads-on-a-regular-basis mistakes. For example, missing/incorrect word, incorrect or no punctuation, no spacing between dialogue (different characters), capitalization, poorly-written sentences (“If I leave THIS PLACE for even a second, the hordes of Hell will descend upon THIS PLACE and tear you all to pieces”), incorrect tense, etc. I’ll go into more detail below.

Justin Robinson’s story “Kodiak” 3/5
There were times I was a little confused as to what was going on; but overall, I found it an interesting story.

Dale Drake’s story “Et Ex Diaboli” (Gluttony) 2/5
I found the beginning of the story interesting. I felt the middle part was just meh. Like I had a hard time focusing, maybe because I was getting distracted by the mistakes. And the ending, well… it’s like everything took a 180 (adding in that sin) and it didn’t work for me.

I found a lot of mistakes in this story: on page 44 at the very bottom, there are three asterisks as though to signify a page/scene break. Very normal. The issue here is that the *** are only ever used twice, again on page 82, otherwise, there are two spaces between the scenes. Very strange. Or “But he needed have bothered” should have been “needn’t have bothered.” Or “Thomas The Tank Engine.” Obviously, “the” wouldn’t be capitalized. Or “land-rover,” it should have been “Land Rover.” I also couldn’t help but find it questionable that a hyphen was used for “living-room rug” but not for “living room floor,” a few sentences later. Then “…as he made the Sign of the Cross…” Again, this shouldn’t be capitalized. The overuse of capitalizing words that shouldn’t be seemed to be the most obvious mistake in story 2.

Question 1: I can’t help but wonder why when a demon takes over a human body do they cuss a lot? Like in books, movies, the possessed person will be tied down to a bed and cuss repeatedly or say vulgar things. Why?
Question 2: Johnny sees the scary guy in the three-piece suit. “Just then, a blur shot from the shadows and leapt OFF Johnny’s back.” So how was it close enough to “clamp its dirty teeth deep into the side of Johnny’s neck?”

Alice Black’s story “Hollow Sanctuary” 0/5
I couldn’t finish this story. It just confused me as to how the scenes were set up. There were too many parts that weren’t lining up, made no sense. Sorry, but no. For example, the fact the main character is in a tent with at least three sides covered (blocked from her vision), how was she able to see so much? Like she saw the demons across from her (on the other side of the fire), then when the woman and child ran past her tent. It doesn’t work unless she was outside of the tent, which she wasn’t.

Question 1: The tent she was in had flaps, correct? I only ask because I wonder how she was able to see so much through a slit in the flaps. How she could tell the demons were heading to the tent with the little girl.
Question 2: The first demon is tangled in the tent where the child is; “the other stepped forward.” Yet, when the mother with child run, that second demon does nothing.
Question 3: If there were guards standing watch… need I say more?
Question 4: The woman runs toward the guards. There was no mention of them opening the gates, even though she’d asked. Yet, the child is dropped and runs “away from the Sanctum?” Given they were inside the Sanctum… I just don’t know here. Would they have had a hill right outside the doors, had they been opened?
Question 5: We know there are several demons, so what are the others doing while the single one goes after the woman and child?

Kate L. Mary’s story “Greed Comes Knocking” 3/5 Am I surprised she used zombies? No.
With how greedy Robyn and Jacob are, I couldn’t help but wonder why they would have been so fast to kill the family. I mean, did they know how to can foods, farm, take care of animals? I’m thinking no.

Question 1: So there was a farmhouse in the woods that was surrounded by a chain-link fence?
Question 2: “It wasn’t fair, thinking about how much these people had (Bekah and family) when some of us were literally empty-handed. Especially when they wouldn’t even consider sharing it.” What? They did share their food though. This seems like a strange statement.
Question 3: I didn’t understand why Robyn thought Bekah was naïve. I didn’t see anything she said as being so.
Question 4: They managed to wash up (including hair) with no complaints with a pitcher of water?
Question 5: Having cows and goats doesn’t equal to having an endless supply of it. This makes me wonder when the world ended. Given animals only produce milk when pregnant or after having a baby, they would have needed a male cow/goat to get the milk flowing from the females.
Question 6: If the property is surrounded by chainlink, how did a zombie get in?

Jessica Gomez’s story “What Remains” 2/5
This story didn't do anything for me. There was nothing unique or interesting about it really.
Question 1: If the burner had been going for days, how would there have still been water in the pot? There wouldn’t be.
Question 2: Where had he been if it’s several days later and he’s just now looking for his brother?
Question 3: He’s been trying to get away, so why when Marcus and crew are focused on the new, smaller group (when he’s hiding in the treeline) does he not run?

Sylvester Barzey’s story “Lisa” 2/5
“This just means your day is gonna be on a loop without any changes from today carrying on into the next day.” Yet, that was true in the story. He wasn’t on repeat given the rabbit was in his house when he woke up. Anyway, I found a lot of mistakes in this story as well, specifically relating to ending a sentence with no punctuation, formatting, capitalization. For example, “'Thank you’ I honestly felt a small bit of anxiety…” Or “Lisa grabbed the end of my desk and started dragging it across
The room.” ( The rest of the sentence was randomly on the next line.) Or “The Machete pointed at me.”
Question 1: Where did Lisa get the shotgun?

Erin Sweet Al-Mehari’s story “The Cuyahogan Mysteries” 0/5 DNF Sorry, but I was tired from all the mistakes in this collection that I only barely skimmed through the pages of this final story.
With this story, I’m just not a fan of super long paragraphs. I also felt the story was rushed as certain parts didn’t add up.

Linking the 7 deadly sins to scenes of future nightmares is unusual but highly entertaining. It’s not the werewolves, vampires or zombies that you need to worry about!
