Here are a few of my favorite reviews of Resonant Dust: Stories - Volume 2:

"Resonant Dust by Stan C Smith is an exceptional collection of short stories that will transport you to thrilling realms within the science fiction genre. Smith's remarkable storytelling ability, combined with his keen imagination, crafts a mesmerizing experience that will leave you captivated from start to finish."
- Snootartist on Amazon

"Each story feels like it’s part of a larger world and has interesting characters. The author also gives his readers a variety of topics for the stories meaning you’re never really sure where he will take them. I loved reading each and every one and am sure that I will come back to this collection and its predecessor in the series."
- Chris Wells on Goodreads

"Smith's depth of imagination combined with an eerily keen sense of the world we live in makes for a truly engaging reading experience. I'm torn between wanting the stories to go on and using my own imagination to explore so many possibilities."
