Northern Lights: 20 MinnSpec Tales ToC: #4. "Come and Catch Me, Henry"

Northern Lights: 20 MinnSpec Tales ToC: #4. "Come and Catch Me, Henry" by Jason D. Wittman

Jason D. Wittman has been with MinnSpec since our first meeting back in 2004. A mainstay of the group, he is our movie Czar -- planning and organizing group movie night -- and a game designer as well as a fine writer. Knowledgeable about books, movies, chess, Poe, Lovecraft, writing, and any number of other things, Jason is always great to sit and have a conversation with. A strong reading voice rounds out the package.

"Come and Catch Me, Henry" shows Jason's ability to write with a Victorian aesthetic. In style it reminds me of the best horror and fantasy authors of the late 19th and early 20th century. I loved the slow build to a crashing crescendo, loved trying to divine the mystery. Well-drawn characters and an intriguing premised make for an enjoyable story that will leave you creeped out.
