5* Review: "I love a good short story before bed, and "Hear That Damn Own?" fit my own personal criteria almost to perfection! My favorite part about this book is the vivid, visually rich writing style that is used to express the story."

He instantly regrets being forced to stop at the old service station on the other side of the mountains from home. The station gives him the creeps. Everything about the place, even the people, are old and dying.
