Desert Fish by Matt Kolbet
A deep psychological drama with well-rounded characters, especially the protagonist. I felt thoroughly grounded in reality right up until the moment Mary gets back-handed by Sam. And then I knew something was off the wall because nobody reacted, including Mary. Although, I have to admit my favorite part was when reality really bent and guys started turning into fish. I liked the use of foreshadowing at the very beginning just hinting at this eventual supernatural climax. I might have ended there myself or at least shortened the denouement. After all, once guys start turning into flying sand-fish in the middle of the desert, what more needs to be said?
