    A Christmas tree farm hides a deadly surprise. And other terrifying tales. Action packed chilling read.

    This had a variety of stories. Creature features, sci-fi horror, a vampire story, and even a deeply sad one. My favorite out of the collection was "Stasis," which was a sci-fi horror story.

    A group of short stories put together in a great collection. Most were Marine Corps related. My favorite was The Hale Koa Incident.

    Woe to Those Who Dwell on Earth by John Lynch is an excellent short story collection.
    I had to laugh during some of the stories, and I previously worked with a guy who is your stereotypical marine - and he's one of the best. So as I read through some of the stories, all I could think was, "I know this guy."
    Lynch has really good storytelling skills. And his experience and passion are evident.
    Don't miss this one.

    This was such a great collection of stories!! I loved every single one of them which is rare for me since I’m not usually a huge fan of anthologies. John Lynch is an amazing story teller and I love his writing style. It’s descriptive and really paints a picture and sets the scene. The first story Blood In The Sand was a strong opener and hooked me right from the start! I come from a family full of marines, so I really enjoyed the military aspect of some of the stories. This collection mixed real life situations with creature features and other horrors. It was thought provoking, brutal, and even disgusting at times! The Hale Koa Incident was my favorite story. I love anything that involves the ocean because that is one of my real life fears.

    If you want to read an all around excellent collection of different short stories, make sure to check this one out!!

    This short story collection is just the right amount of unsettling. The stories and characters are creative, and I was on the edge of my seat. The book’s characters are mainly military, but they’re still easy to follow for someone who’s not familiar with that world at all. The stories themselves were creepy and suspenseful. Any complaints I have are small.

    Blood in the sand: the suspense was palpable. The author balanced the creature just right: enough information to be scary, but still left enough to the imagination.
    The butcher of Bridgeport: Some of the phrases in this story were beautifully descriptive. I felt like I was there. It did make use of some writing cliches.
    The tree farm: this story was hilarious. It did have some awkward dialogue.
    Stasis: this story was very reminiscent of Alien. Again the descriptions of the creatures were grotesque (in a good way)
    The hale koa incident: again, the suspense in this story is amazing. I couldn’t read fast enough to find out what was going to happen.
    Cock-meat sandwich: All I have to say is “wtf”
    Bow saw: this one really kept me guessing. It wasn’t too terribly surprising, but was a fun journey. I love the split perspectives in this one.
    Noose: another one where I couldn’t wait to find out what was happening. A little predictable but told marvelously
    Wing night: this story was good, but the most predictable of the bunch. It also had a repeated trope (waking up tied to a chair) that gets used a few times.
    Open the window, tommy: had me yelling “Don’t do it!” at the end
    The newlyweds: this story made me very uncomfortable (again, in a good way). You really root for the villain to be destroyed in this one.
    Qrf up!: the shortest story. Almost too short to really get into.

    All in all, I’d definitely recommend this book to someone who wants to be just creeped out just enough. A very enjoyable read.

    Solid collection of stories from a phenomenal author. Some of the stories are a little darker than others and I'm here for every flavor of horror that John Lynch writes.
