Like his previous work, I loved reading these short stories. The stories have crazy plotlines, for example, what if one day the puppet becomes the puppeteer or whatif you come across a pool which pulls out your reflection in flesh and bones?

You will feel like the cat in this image but in a good way. During the course of reading every story, your mind is in a state of constant wonder as to what to expect next.

I was asked to read and review Strange Medicine by Jay at Strangebooks, for a fair and honest review.

Strange Medicine is a selection of short stories from the strange mind of Mike Russell.

The Titles for the stories are;

• Flock
• Seventy-Two Bricks
• Telephone
• Mime
• Mr Dennis and the universe
• The Spy
• Brain
• Shish

My favorite of the short stories is Brain about a man the lives his life all about rationality, and it the end life is more than rationality. The stories are not long but they way that they are written conveys the evolution of the character.

I like reading Mike Russell books you never known which direction they will take, and they make me think more about the meaning of the stories.

I give this book 4 out of 5

My favorite of all was of course…
