Twist: (noun) a decisive change of direction, aim, meaning, or character; (in a novel, play, etc) an unexpected event, revelation, or other development. When J. H. Long and Hugh Ellis let loose their creative imaginations, a twist is inevitable. They have put together a collection of their short stories (including one that they authored jointly) that exemplify this. Whether looking at politics, history, religion, justice or human depravity, the end is never quite what we were expecting. Sit back, get comfortable, and put on your literary neck brace - after all, you don't want to wind up with whiplash. Oh, and while you are at it, can you guess which stories are firmly anchored in truth?
