 "I received a copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review"

I've read Mike's book Nothing is strange last year and was totally blown away. Of course when StrangeBooks contacted me to read another his work I was more than happy to say yes.

Strange Medicine is another collection of short stories and if you think that Nothing is strange is good this will knock your socks off.  Again this is not for everybody. If you like strange and bizarre than what are you waiting pick this book up. Strange Medicine contains 8 short stories and my favourites are Seventy-Two Bricks and Mime. It's hard to describe why without spoiling it you so I'll just leave with that. This stories maybe strange and bizarre but every single one has a message and you need to engage your brain or perhaps stone. Wink wink …

I really enjoyed this book. StrangeBooks generously sent a physical copy and I had an opportunity to take the book everywhere with me. There were some strange looks in the tram due to title and cover but that is the purpose of this type of book.  Strange Medicine is not connected with Nothing is strange so you can choose whichever you want to read first but I would recommend you picking Nothing is strange first to prepare yourself.

If you are in reading slump, or looking for something different or bizarre than only medicine that I could prescript you is Strange Medicine.
