The editor of this anthology says, "The first anthology published by Wolfmont, this book's authors had to "audition" for the book! I asked people to write a flash fiction piece about the deadly sin of Greed, and several submitted their stories. All the stories were outstanding, but I needed only seven authors. Those seven authors agreed to each write seven flash fiction crime stories about each of the seven deadly sins, with this restriction: absolutely no longer than 600 words! This combination of enforced theme and rigid word count forced some of the best writing I believe these authors had done to that point. It was a difficult challenge, but they all rose to it and this book is the result."

"Seven writers x seven deadly sins = 49 ways of death in 600 words each. These authors are killers!  Indulge in all the seven deadly sins--they're heavenly!" -- Gay T. Kinman, author of Castle Reiner and others 

"Seven By Seven is a plethora of skillfully written tales that will amuse and chill you, topped off by a foreword by an outstanding author I can never get enough of, G. Miki Hayden." -- Babs Lakey, author of Spirit of the Silent Butler and others

"What a delightful idea! Give seven talented writers the same themes – in this case, the Seven Deadly Sins – and see what they come up with. Tony Burton did exactly that and the result is a treasure chest of short fiction. Each author crafted a sinfully good tale with sinfully bad characters, beginning with Lust, then moving on to Greed, Envy and the rest." -- Earl Staggs, Derringer Award Winner and author of Memory of a Murder
