Here are comments made during the show by C K Webb:
“I am stoked. I am a huge fan.”
“He is going to be reading from his novel Burn Phone and I have been waiting so long….”
“This is your fourth visit… you’re practically hosting the show with me.”
“It’s gonna be that creepy thing that you do, I’m sure. We talked about this and it’s one of my favorite things that you do.”
“For those of you readers and listeners out there, Thomas has very quickly, within the last year catapulted himself into my top five horror writers. And I’m a huge fan of horror.”
“I’m a big fan of yours… the way that you write is so in-your-face. I have been hooked on it since that first reading that you did.”
“Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! I have been wanting to hear that.”
“But I have this sneaking suspicion there’s going to be a lot of twisting and turning going on in there. “
“You have a tendency to do that. Get really bad, really fast.”

Goodreads Review By Kay – Burn Phone
Ok this is the second book I’ve read from Mr. Malafarina – and I am fast becoming a fan of this author. This book will have you looking at prepaid cellular phones (burn phone) in an entirely new
light!
There is plenty of gore throughout the book with twist and a snappy ending. The only thing is — sequel ??? YOU CANT HAVE AN ENDING LIKE THAT WITH NO SEQUEL!
