All the stories in this anthology revolve around the carnival and/or circus life, a subject I really enjoy. Didn't y'all want to run away and join the circus when you were younger... or is that just me? ;)I reviewed this book on a story by story basis, and most of these stories were really good. I...
Vierzehn Kurzgeschichten ziehen in dieser Anthologie LeserInnen in die oft schaurige, pervertierte oder einfach nur surreale Welt des Zirkus. Vierzehn Geschichten, vierzehn AutorInnen – und alle betreten den Zirkus auf ganz unterschiedliche Weise. Was alle gemein haben, ist die Verbindung zum Grauen...

*Overall Rating* 3.5I was more than happy to receive Carniepunk from the publisher in both a finished copy as well as E-ARC via Edelweiss. There were a few authors I did not know, nor have I read anything by them previous to reading their short stories. Authors like Kevin Hearne, Jackie Kessler, Hil...

Carniepunk by Too many to name :)But I will name them any way!This is what I call waiting room reading. In line? At the dentist? Sitting in the car waiting for the kids?
