Anthony Valerio

"Anthony Valerio's fiction bears likeness to our best dreams when the fantastical elements of the subconscious play themselves out in a vivid replica of reality."
--The Baltimore Sun

"He knows his craft - He knows his characters - He gets in, tells his story and gets out - It's what good writing should be" --Shel Silverstein
