Review: PIECES OF EIGHT is a collection of eight remarkably creative novellas, with such themes as: general fiction, fiction, horror, thriller, paranormal, astrology, drama, inspirational, and humor--something for everyone! One of my favorite stories is Winslow Junction. This is the story of one family's nightmare. Their little boy, Casey, has a unique power and he loves trains...maybe a little too much! All of the stories in PIECES OF EIGHT are based in different parts of the world, giving the reader, not only a taste of different places, but of the different people within them. Jay Dubya is the writing name of John Wiessner, an extremely talented children's author. Mr. Dubya is a retired English teacher after teaching in public schools for thirty-four years, which is quite an accomplishment. He is married to Joanne and has three grown sons. Jay Dubya lives in Hammonton, New Jersey. He is a multi-published author in several different genres. Look for this talented authors work by visiting his publisher today. I thoroughly enjoyed reading Mr. Dubya's book and I look forward to reading the second book--PIECES OF EIGHT Part II.
