What Readers are saying about Grandpa’s Horse & Other Tales
“Grandpa‘s Horse & Other Tales is a very enjoyable collection of stories with excellent world-building. I particularly liked The Anchor, Katie, Library of the Occult, and Starlight. Many of the characters stayed with me long after I’d finished reading and I found myself pondering on what might have happened to them next.”
–Barbara Scott-Emmett, author.
“Grandpa’s tales are anything but grandfatherly. This is an anthology of eleven tales of creative writing along with a remarkable sequel to Lehner’s novel, The Awakening of Russell Henderson. This collection of stories is delightful and entertaining as well as provocative. Lehner certainly has more to offer and hopefully there will be more to come!”
–Linda Hind
“Grandpa‘s Horse & Other Tales is a delightful anthology of stories from Ed Lehner. I confess that Grandpa’s Horse is my favorite, but each story holds a nugget of wisdom. He has a way of being open to life’s little surprises, observant of the effect of events on peoples’ lives, and of things that cannot be explained. He writes about a loved one’s brush with death that bystanders are helpless to prevent, and the aftermath. He lightly touches on quantum physics and then crafts a tale about an angel. The final story follows up with a main character from Ed’s second book, The Awakening of Russell Henderson.
This book does not disappoint. It’s a delightful, insightful, and riveting escape in bite sized portions.”
–Rini Twait, journalist.

Julie Barrett –
Grandpa’s Horse & Other Tales by Ed Lehner
Love the story of 1940s and war is over and how those in rural areas survived, what they grew for themselves and tended to farm animals.
Lots of stories with events that take place in rural area, Sometimes it’s like twilight zone with aliens but other times it’s just regular people making a living. Like how the author can be sitting having a coffee at the shop and notice people and he is able to write a story about them.
Love hearing of the awards author won for the works he entered.
Received this review copy from AIA Publishing and this is my honest opinion.
