Short-story anthologies can often be a mixed bag consisting of both the good and the bad. This is one of the reasons why Gardiner Dozios and Stanley Schmidt’s book stands out; taken from the pages of both Asimov’s Science Fiction magazine and Analog Science Fiction and Fact, it offers a stronger ...
2.5 starsI had this short story read to me in a podcast Levar Burton Reads.I'm not really into Sci-Fi so I found it a tad boring but It was short and sweet!
"The Last Feast of the Harlequin". A short story by Thomas Ligotti, a part of the American Gothic Tales collection. What is it that buried itself before it's dead? Alright, I confess. I haven't taken writing reviews very seriously - hell, writing in general is not done to the output that it ne...

I think that I need one day a week to talk, briefly, about the shorts I have been reading during the week. So, in the spirit of that - I will introduce a new segment known as Saturday Short Story Round-Up! Wieland, or The Transformation (Chapter 19) - Charles Brockden Brown [spoiler] ...
I enjoyed most of what I read of this book, but thought it very funny that a book with an entire section for paranormal romance, including a freakin' essay, got it completely wrong.
