Amy's Bookshelf Reviews "I am a huge fan of Donald Firesmith. Whatever he writes, I know, without expectation, that it's going to be interesting, and very intriguing. Some of the stories reminded me of the Twilight Zone television show (yes, I watched the reruns), but it also reminded me of something I watched recently, which was Stephen King's collection of Nightmares and Dreamscapes. Yes, the stories are that good. I don't know what inspires Firesmith, but I'm glad he shares his intriguing and magnificent stories with readers. I am always honored to read his work. The author weaves a tangled web of stories and captures the reader. Future Dreams and Nightmares is a definite recommendation by Amy's Bookshelf Reviews."

There is plenty of suspense and mystery to keep them interesting and very intriguing. Each will blow your mind in many different ways. Each is a blast to read."
