The Curse of the Yellow Mandolin and Other Stories

Award winning writer and playwright Uke Jackson was once compared to Chekhov by the late great Lauren Bacall. Accolades for his River Tales public radio storytelling series came from the Philadelphia Inquirer, Orlando Sentinel, Newsweek and many other publications. His short stories were a regular feature in Tropic, The Miami Herald Sunday Magazine and were collected in Beach Tales. The Curse of the Yellow Mandolin and Other Stories brings together nine new stories, eight of which were published on line as blog posts or e-books from September 2013 ? August 2014. This is the first time in print or e-print for Bad Penny, the other story in this collection. While exploring themes of paranormal erotica, deep space mining and exploration, zombies, parallel universes, aliens, voodoo, meeting the Devil, Uke Jackson gives his flair for the macabre and twisty plots full range. These stories will endure and entertain for generations to come.
