The Wolf's Torment (Book) - 4/5/2008 9:01:24 AM
The Wolf’s Torment is S. G. Cardin’s fifth book, and the only one with ties to the gothic horror genre. As an established book critic and longtime fan of books about werewolves, witches, and vampires, I asked Stephanie to send me a copy of The Wolf’s Torment, and I was not disappointed. The storyline is quite exceptional in the werewolf genre. The witches and vampires are only a small part of the story, and I would actually categorize the book as a supernatural, gothic romance. As I began reading the early chapters, I wondered a bit why the story had to be set in Moldavia in the 1860’s, but as the complex interrelationships of the lead characters unfolded, the setting and timeline began to shape the story. The plot builds slowly in the beginning, but by the middle of the book, it has really taken the reader somewhere! As an innovative, engrossing story, The Wolf’s Torment ranks among the best werewolf books I have read.

I like her, but I don't feel comfortable with the fact that she'd allow a stranger to hug her. Talk to her--yeah. But hug? I don't know... But then, my prose stinks, so you can't really listen to me... --Charlie

Very dark and atmospheric...I enjoyed it.
The Watch Tower (Short Story) - 8/13/2007 2:04:02 AM
Nice -- a very strong kick ass horror yarn here. Is it me or you're actually getting even more hardcore with your delivery too. I could actually hear Iced Earth's Dracula being the backdrop for this sucker. I love it, very eerie aspect of including self-mutilation into it.

Whispers in the Dark (Short Story) - 10/9/2006 7:57:37 PM
"Whispers in the Dark" is a gripping fast paced tale of just desserts, reminded me a bit of Stephen Kings early work with a touch of Poe as well. Well done Ms. Cardin you left me wanting more!
Whispers in the Dark (Short Story) - 10/9/2006 2:09:43 PM
Ooh no!! He had killed her, then lied to his kids? No wonder he was such a loser! Deserved to be haunted!!! Great write, Steph!
I don't know if I have missed your writes as I don't get tracking messages updates these days - no idea what is wrong.
God bless,

Grave of the Devil (Short Story) - 7/17/2006 9:19:28 AM
Wow, Steph! I was hoping for a happy ending! Nevertheless, very strong writing from the beginning to the end. Coincidentally, shetani (pronounced shaitan in Arabic I believe) means devil. Did you know that? Excellent descriptive write, Steph!
God bless,
Sandie.
Grave of the Devil (Short Story) - 7/15/2006 11:19:01 AM
Wow, action packed. You brought the characters to life, which kept the story alive for me. Robert Montesino is correct, take care of the third paragraph but other than that, that is pretty much it.

Black Carnations (Short Story) - 7/11/2006 11:25:30 AM
Cool story... While reading this one I felt toward the end the appeareance of the dark mysterious stranger (Mephistopheles) and ending might fit the storyline better, if Jolee inadvertently conjures up this demon in the beginning of the story by secretly hoping for her boyfriends death as payback for his indescretions. For maximum effect I'd graphically reveal to her friend Audrey how she witnessed him in the act playing up the violence that followed. Let's face it Jolee is a scorned women & all is fair in love & then make this 500 words of pure revenge without apology & this story will really rock!
Grave of the Devil (Short Story) - 7/11/2006 10:31:59 AM
This action packed sci-fi horror piece is entertaining easily drawing in this reader and kept me reading...intially the title caught my interest but as I read, your narrative carried the story to a place I hadn't imagined. (Note: I would eliminate the third paragraph and just keep the action going, ratching up the suspense even more, edit out as much data dumping as possible then lead into the dialogue in the second chapter to keep the momentum going with even more power.) Wonderfully imaginative write, enjoyed the ride!
You Touched My Life (Poetry) - 10/5/2007 3:45:56 PM
This is very very very good. I recently lost my brother on September 2nd and the last three lines were what got me. You sure do, SG Cardin, possess an excellent talent for poetry and I am glad you share it with people. Keep on writing and keep on touching hearts everywhere.

Halloween is my favorite holiday too. Since the Germans didn't celebrate it and I lived on the German economy while I was stationed in Germany I missed out on celebrating for 3 1/2 years until I returned to the United States.

hahaha. love has a way of taking us by surprise like this. love is such a whirlwind. It lifts you up and then brings you down. But it's better to have loved and lost then to have never loved at all.
Touching, tender write.

I fully agree, I can remember dreaming of home and the ocean there in NJ, when I was stationed overseas...I was near the Pacific, but it did not seem like the Atlantic, some difference there was, not sure what, but this poem brought back good memories of that time, as the ocean can bring back the past and give us good thoughts for the future...Peace thru Ocean Meditations, Ed & Rufuz

The repetitive pattern you have set in the poem is very well done. You never pull away from the theme you set. Very good job Lady. Bill
To The Sea (Poetry) - 6/24/2004 12:44:24 AM
this is beautiful. i especially like the repetition of sea, waves, tide, sea in first two lines of each stanza - it gives one a feel of standing at the shore.
