  “Pretty awesome stuff. I would have to call this verse or doggerel rather than poetry, because Burton can't quite get the lines to scan, but it has that wonderful, Haloweeny Tim Burton feel.”

  “Funny, gruesome, imaginative and totally wicked! Definitely not for kids. Had a good time reading it especially the stories are short but can have a very twisted ending.”

  “Short poems and stories of sad creatures, including our title character Oyster Boy, who is slaughtered by his own parents. Enjoyable.”
