From the moment I first loaded FISH into my Kindle app, something smelled funny. Despite the aromatic warning, I couldn't resist continuing onward through the digital pages, ignoring my best judgment, and experiencing Max's fulfilling release of creative juices once finished.
"When
a boy, desperate for sex, finally finds a lover, he gives himself to
her completely, body and soul. She will ensure that he does anything
necessary to protect her, and their family..."
Honestly, I thought that this would be a mere lustful teenage love story riddled with a twist somewhere near the end. I should have known better with an author like Mr. Booth III involved. This is one of the most disgustingly beautiful short stories I have read in quite a while, and would recommend it to anyone with an extra 99 cents in their bank account. Hell, charge your Kindle reader battery and shorten that electric or heat bill by a dollar. This read is worth a month without unnecessary luxuries; the cavemen didn't need such extravagant wants, why do we?
In all seriousness, Max Booth III is a fantastic writer and well deserving of praise for his works; short and long. His dedication to the craft of writing, and to his fans, is only equated by a select few. Dare I say he is one of my literary heroes? (Or is that creepy and stalker-ish?) Regardless, Max is quite talented and this short story samples his abundant talent within.
