review 1: I'm a big fan of short story compilations and this one had the right amount of scary, freaky, creepy and interesting. I enjoyed them all.M.T. Murphy-Blackmail- Fun vampire story, the twists were fun and the ending a delight. S.M. Reine-Something Wrong- Very creepy! VERY. I advise not to read while babysitting. India Drummond-The Reaver- Disturbing tale of soul taking, and a good reminder to parents: Don't break a promise to your child!Anabel Portillo-Lux- The perfect killer, created by a madman! Jeremy C. Shipp-Figs- Love comes back gently...with odors and revenge. Samantha Anderson-Deals and Demons- "Two of four, three of three, five of one." Sara Reinke-Periphery People- To drink or not to drink...M.T. Murphy-Spider Bag- Useless vampire wannabe's, a werewolf and mo... morere reasons to fear spiders (and Lucy)!The artwork was a wonderful bonus too!
review 2: So this pack of stories starts and ends with MT Murphy. 1. Blackmail. I wasn't a fan of this one. It was just too cheesy for me. The whole 'Lucifera' name, prefect example of cheesiness. Couldn't help but notice the name was used again in his other story.2. Something Wrong. That story was alright. I would have liked to have known what the 'killer' daughter was though.3. The Reaver. This was a weird story but pretty interesting.4. LUX. What can be said for this one? Weird? Confusing? It had potential but I kept getting lost. I wasn't really sure what was going on.5. Figs. "Her mouth tastes a lot like cinnamon and a little like manure, but I don't care." Huh? That was a strange one.6. Deals and Demons. Another confusing read for me. And boring.7. Periphery People. I liked this one. I wished it would have been longer though.8. Spider Bag. This was probably the best one. Same author as the first one, whereas I didn't like the first one, I did like the last one. This was a funny one, not so much the conversation between Mickey and Hines about the wearing ladies underwear, that was stupid. But the spiders and Mickey being scared of them and later Carl (?) being full of spiders. Very good. less
