review 1: I was excited to read this one as it had a lot of stories by authors that I love. I thought it would give me a tidbit to tide me over until their new book comes out. Sadly as I started to read these I realized that I have read them before. So I went to the forward and sure eno...

review 1: Anthology collections like this one always tend to be a mixed bag. This one is no exception to that rule. There were a few particularly exceptional stories but by and large in my opinion the collection as a whole had more misses than hits (though the quality of the best stories...

review 1: I truly hater this book. I bought it from the bargain bin for 5buck cause I love horror stories and thought there might be some really good scary vamp reads in here. I was wrong. I think maybe 3 stories really caught my attention, the rest I found excruciating to get through. wit...

review 1: This book had some really great stories, but around the 2/3 point you can tell that the editor just gave up. I put it down after I couldn't get through a single page that didn't have a misspelled word, improper punctuation, or even a switch from 1st to 3rd person within a paragra...

review 1: I don't know what I like and not about this book, first of all I didn't know anything about the most of the authors which was good because then I don't have any expectations and I'm quite fond of love stories but my feelings are a bit mixed! but unlike many others there are some ...

review 1: Most of the stories didn't seem complete. I picked this book up because of one author and hers was about the only story I liked. I had to force myself to finish the book. Each story had an introduction explaining why the witch was presented the way it was. This took a lot of ...

review 1: I absolutely love fairy tales, so of course I was thrilled to find this collection. It is impossible for me to give it anything less than 5 stars because I could not find fault with a single story. Even though I did not like every story, I could not blame the publisher or the au...

review 1: I wanted to love it, but the editing was just horrendous, and the many errors too distracting for me. Some stories good but too many were just so-so, and the really good ones, such as Bradbury's The October Game, can be found in other collections that I already own. Disappointed....

review 1: A wonderful mix of curious and intriguing stories! I definitely recommend this book to lovers of fiction, particularly dark fiction. My Favorites: Blue Amber (though it could have done without the foul language)The Soul in the Bell JarPhosphorus Shadows For Silence in the Forests...
