Anthology. I only read stories 1 through 6 so my rating is based only on those stories. 2.58 out of 5 stars. 1. The Truth About Werewolves by Lisa Tuttle. This story was very confusing. A woman is obsessed with werewolves, starts a support group to meet one, meets one who "changes" maybe, and then h...
I got this *just* for the Kitty story and I'm getting caught up on books I have before the last book comes out. I skimmed some of the other stories, but none caught my attention."Kitty Learns the Ropes"- very typical Kitty. I liked it, but it didn't really add anything to the series. It's one that c...

It's still a mixed bag though, with some stories much better than the rest, some following under...
This is not a collection of Mythos stories, or even stories necessarily set in Lovecraft's world. It seems the idea was to collect stories inspired by the tone in much of Lovecraft's work. Bleak hopelessness, psychological strain, that sort of thing. Oh, there are indeed things recognizable as Old O...
So you're tired of grimdark sci-fi, dystopias and alien invasions and guns'n'guts military SF. You'd like to read something where the future is actually a better place. Well, that's the premise behind this anthology of optimistic science fiction put together by Jetse de Vries. It consists of sixteen...
