A wonderful collection of short stories by a very talented author. There are thrills, surprises and plenty of action. The individual stories are filled with twists and turns that delight the reader. The short stories cross many genres and make the collection unique and exciting. Well worth five stars.
An interesting mix of stories here, with a nice variety of genres. Some have nice twists, and I can see the talent here.
Thanks very much for the free copy for review!!
Will Canduri writes with beauty and detail in this collection of stories. The development of characters and moments, along with the creative twists and cultural influences, all make this a collection well worth enjoying.
I love folk stories or any kind of international story and when I seen these short Spanish stories by Will Canduri, I knew I had to get them and I was not disappointed from aliens to ghost to people disappearing the store is a strange and unlike any I can honestly say that I have read before. If you’re a lover of short horror stories or just stories that are different from the every day fair then you’ll love Twisted Crows I certainly did I am a collector of short McCobb and odd stories and I will definitely be buying the paperback of this one from my library. I can’t impress how original these stories were I totally love them. I received this book from NetGalley and the publisher but I am leaving this review voluntarily please forgive any mistakes as I am blind and dictate my review.
"Twisted Crows" is a fascinating collection of stories by Will Canduri. Originally published in Spanish, this is the sequel to his similarly eclectic "Ensalada De Cuervos". As one would expect of a crow salad, the stories are unusual. They're shiny morsels picked up and collected together to create a whiplash inducing array of bright things. One story might be a single page long, and the next be over twenty. You just don't know what you're going to get.
This book is steeped in South American culture and motifs. There was some that was lost in translation to me, simply due to the fact that it's from a time and a place that I've never visited - let alone lived in. Nonetheless, the magical realism is thick in this collection.
This is a book that I feel I will get more from by revisiting later. Some of the stories I adored, some I didn't care for, all gripped and fascinated me. Some made me laugh out loud, while others had me squinting as I tried to piece together references that I just couldn't quite put my finger upon.
Twisted Crows is a collection you'll want to talk about. Will Canduri is certainly an author to watch.

This collection of Spanish-infused short stories is perfect for spooky season! With 28 different stories, there is something for every type of reader.
I really enjoyed that the lengths between the different stories varied, so I didn’t get the sense that the stories dragged. I especially enjoyed how rich they all were with Spanish culture and tradition. There’s also a bunch of twists I didn’t see coming!
I thoroughly enjoyed this collection and can’t thank author @willcanduri enough for sending me a copy. Looking forward to reading your next one!
This collection is eerie and perfect for the season so make sure and pick it up!
