Anthology. Average rating is 3.52 stars. There were a few I skipped because of violence against children, there were a few stinkers but quite a few good ones so worth the read. 1. Wild ride by Carrie Vaughn. A lonely man finds out he's got a horrible disease and discovers a way to get a cure. Then h...
I bought this one for the Carrie Vaughn story "Wild Ride." However, I've already read that one in Kitty's Greatest Hits. Oops. I was able to get into a few others and they were really good!Blended (CE Murphy)Oh how sweet the vengeance! This one was good. Marketa was a pup when her pack was hunted, s...
A large, eclectic collection of short stories that relate to fungi in one way or another. From the expected Lovecraftian-style horror, to altered states of consciousness, fairy tales and even humour - there’s a huge variety of themes on offer here.However, not every story worked for me, and I probab...
You know, what's really amazing is how I made it through the gratuitous violence, the blasphemous conversations that were obviously trying to be funny (I'm atheist and even *I* was offended), the continued idiocy of these two brothers - but it was the disgusting sex where an old lady's vagina is des...
Here's the thing about The Folly of the World: the story was underwhelming, yet the book only made me love Jesse Bullington's writing even more.After reading (and loving) his previous work, this one wasn't quite on par. Still good, still worth a read, and by an author without the impressive catalo...
The Sad Tale of the Brothers Grossbart is gory, violent, and filled with more than enough profanity to give my grandmothers simultaneous heart attacks. The very first page is a snippet of conversation analyzing the word “fuck” and it only gets better from there—or worse, depending on your prospecti...
I bought this book at full price (*gasp!*) last year at Barnes and Noble while I was waiting for a movie to start in a theater next door - I think it was Insidious, but I could be wrong.I grabbed this book because the cover art was amazing - I would like to give credit where credit is do and say tha...
I hate to say it but I just couldn't get on with this one, I only read the first 3 stories / poems in the anthology but it's been 20 days since I last picked it up and I haven't been able to bring myself to go back to it.It's not that the stories are bad, I just don't think this is my kind of thing ...
A short story collection centered around a wolf transformation, aligned more closely to horror than urban fantasy. While some are inventive, many read like a short story workshop: "What if you mix werewolf with...?" Some of these are Very Serious Short Stories with Important Life Lessons. (Must out...
For a rather twisted book, all about necromancy (and often graphic necrophilia) its also rather funny and ultimately life affirming, even happy. A few of the minor characters could have stood to get a bit more development, and some rather important elements seemed to come out of nowhere, but those a...
