This is what I've finished so far:"Grave Matter - A Mike Hammer Story" - Max Allan Collins and Mickey Spillane This was a fairly amusing story. Though there wasn't much of a point to me.

I've only read 3 stories - the Charlaine Harris, which is the one I got the book out of the library for, and 2 others that seemed well recommended by other reviewers.

This was like most of these anthologies, some good, some not so much. When you add in the fact that most of the writers don't write "woo woo", as it's called in the foreword, it gets a little more iffy. Charlaine Harris' story was very good. It was another look at the bombing of the Rhodes hotel....
