Joe McKinney recommends

Unbound and Other Tales (2010)
David Dunwoody
"Its been too long since a book raised the hairs on the back of my neck, but the stories in Unbound did just that. A truly outstanding collection."

Kill-Off (2014)
John F D Taff
"Kill-Off is a tightly written, dark descent into the world of the contract killer. I haven't been sucked into the mind of a murderer so convincingly since Theodore Sturgeon's Some of Your Blood. John F.D. Taff hits this one out of the park."

Ship of the Dead (2014)
(Omega Days, book 2)
John L Campbell
"Nobody writes an urban battle scene quite like[Campbell]."
