| "[M]arvelous stories... Your plots are complex and fascinating, twisting to surprise but always highly logical in retrospect. [Dermanassian] is a complex well-realized individual." Richard K.

| "This story was a prime example of what a short story should contain and how it should be plotted out. Great job!" Reader, on Anonymous World. |

"Just knock me over after reading "127 Fears" by S. C. Bryce. Red Roan is a hero and adventurer, questing after the very real titular Fears brought to life and unleashed upon the world. But "in the dusk of his life," Red Roan has succeeded in destroying only two of the Fears, the 68th (Fear of Suffocation) and the 14th (Fear of Things That Creep). Forty-three years of adventuring have brought him to the end of his days with little to show for it, and he encounters a Fear that takes full advantage of his mood. The game I had going in my head while I read Bryce's stellar prose is what the Fear would be named (saved for the very end, which was a virtual certainty). You can play the game, too, and I'll let you know that my guess of Fear of Failure was wrong. A great, great story once again showing the outstanding relationship of a man and his role as hero, solid characterization punctuating the idea of the setting." Rob Santa, Firebrand Fiction, on 127 Fears. |
| "The opening line caught my attention immediately. The rest of the story held it. Fears are something we all have, and SC Bryce uses that to allow the reader to understand the motivation behind the main character. I have had to reword this review several times because I keep giving away the ending. I guess I will have to conclude by simply stating that this is a fantastic story and should be read without some silly reviewer spoiling it." Blogtide Rising on 127 Fears. |
