“Nobody else working in our part of the horror field is like Geick. There is nothing predictable about his work, save for a growing sense of unease as he drags us through his narratives towards who-the-fuck-knows what end." – Kevin Sweeney, author of The Whorehouse That Jack Built, The Lollipop Man, and The Seviin Sick Sins
“I’ve really outdone myself with this one!” - Gerhard Jason Geick

United KingdomI loved it..
This short story is not only descriptive and compelling, it's also enshrouded in a chilling, creepy atmosphere that wraps itself around you and hugs you tight from beginning to end. Our would-be killer is full of smug confidence, he's learnt all he knows from murder documentaries and youtube videos, and he has grown up with his fathers love of splatterpunk and extreme horror. He also has a belief that the universe will provide for him and help him in his new found hobby! ‘Benjamin’ desperately needed the bathroom, and it would prove to be a real stinker of a move for him, a fatal release from his young, brief life. A quick read, packed with twists, turns, and karma! Karma will always get you in the end, you can't escape it, for those that deserve it, it waits like a coiled snake, striking when you least expect it, and dishing out its cruel venom of justice! This was a really satisfying read overall, I loved it! And the afterword was a nice touch too!
