Barnaby’s Shorts
Ten Short Stories in each volume, to read in the bath, on the train, in bed, or on the beach.
A mixed bag of gentle humour, a hint of mystery, a touch of pathos and tales with a twist.

As usual, Barnaby Wilde offers up a great selection of stories with unique perspectives, humor, and more than the
occasional twist. Well worth the read!

These good-natured, discursive stories are sometimes a little slow to get going, but contain some really inventive ideas.
I especially enjoyed "Benny" and "Onwards and Upwards.

Enjoyed this Barnaby's Shorts as much as the others. I hope there are more on the way.

I always enjoy the works of Barnaby Wilde, and this collection is no exception. My perspective has been shifted, my heart
has been warmed, and my funny bone has been thoroughly tickled. Without reservation, I highly recommend this book.

Just too funny. The 5 star is meant for "SwayCrazy". I almost fell of my chair, laughing so hard. And so did my grandkids.
A really great "tongue in cheek" story!

Good book! I thoroughly enjoyed the stories. They were diverse and unpredictable.

I am really enjoying reading the Barnaby's Shorts collection. I might not like all the stories, but I definitely
like most of them. I will continue to read books by this author.

Another fabulous collection, with a story for just about every reader. My favourites were 'The Fourth Plinth', 'The
Autograph Hunter', and 'Chameleons', and 'A Bed for One Night' was wonderful too. Highly recommended.

Barnaby Wilde has a wonderful knack of spinning a fabulous yarn and this, his seventh collection of his shorts, is vintage
Wilde. I find myself wondering if The Yarn Man isn't more autobiographical than fiction. I do look forward to your eighth
collection. I'm hooked, ye sod.

This is Barnaby Wilde in top form. His humour and original style captures the essence of telling it short and telling it well.
Very moreish, like having a big packet of chocolate biscuits, hard to stop once you've started.
