From PUBLISHERS WEEKLY March 26, 2001 review of AFTER SHOCKS: "Lisa Morton's "El Cazador"... decode[s] dark truths encrypted in the tags of Los Angeles graffiti artists...all well written, the stories... suggest that their horror is more a universal idiom than a regional dialect."

The whole anthology is excellent..." (Mehitobel Wilson)
