The Best Horror of the Year
review 1: Sorry to say that I thought this was a poor anthology of horror stories. I didn't like ANY of them except "each thing i show you is a piece of my death." That story was brilliant - it was like "The Ring" except so much scarier. I loved how the story stayed on the periphery - that's what made it so good. But the rest of them were really sub par. They weren't scary. They weren't even just good. A few of them seemed like they might have some potential, but by the end, they petered out. Ah well, can't win em all.
review 2: Some of these stories were so scary I had to put the book away for a breather. It's an excellent collection, worthy of the campfire, or a simple, quiet evening at home with the lights off and the doors and windows sensibly locked. The horror will
... more penetrate you and mark you permanently. I feel a fondness for some of these stories that has endured. I hope to pick up the book again sometime soon and experience them again. less
