Lighting The Dark Side is an apt title for this book of six short stories. Potter shines a little light on the darker side of humanity. 

 My favorite story was “Bent, Not Broken.” Dwayne and Dee Dee were both interesting characters. Dwayne attempted to function in a world that did not understand his disorder or did not care. When we, as a society, do not understand someone, we pick at his or her weaknesses. 

A natural disaster (May 18, 2010) is predicted to occur on a certain date. Panic seizes the populace. This reminded me of how people reacted to the turn of the century. 

I also enjoyed “Blessing or Curse”. Brad discovers that money cannot buy everything. Potter has a unique talent for peeling off the layers of civility and finding the true inner soul of humanity. Fans of modern fiction will enjoy Lighting The Dark Side.
