Dark Media book reviewer Joshua Skye got hold of a copy of The Spooky Chronicles: The Crooked Man and had this to say about it:
“‘The Spooky Chronicles: The Crooked Man’ is a young child’s horror yarn, a gruesomely charming little tale told with all the delightful magic of a bedtime story… the story is easy to read, fast, and fun. I enjoyed the invoked images and the playful morbidity of the story. It could have easily been expanded and might have benefited from more detailed dialogue. Still, it was darkly cute and I look forward to the next installments of the series. If you are a fan of the “Cirque du Freak” series, this is right up your alley.”
