Second Lives has an amazingly creepy cover and an intriguing blurb and when I sat down with it I knew it was going to be an emotionally intense read. The plot is about a group of four people who die, after all, but I wasn’t expecting the heavy blanket of sadness that was dropped over my head to stay...
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...
In the end, I was disappointed with this collection. The frame story was completely awesome. I was not expecting pretty much anything that I read. The following stories, painted as "case files," were almost invariably a letdown. Quite a few of them deviated from theme and were absolutely not beli...
This collection knocked around since the '90s with several publishers, starting with Arkham House, giving up on it. Cemetery Dance brought it out ultimately. It had been so long in the tennis court that Lansdale couldn't find his original introduction and had to write a new one! The collection i...

Brainycat's 5 Bs:blood: 5boobs:5bombs: 3bondage: 4blasphemy: 4This is a fun little collection of mostly forgettable dark stories with adult themes. I wouldn't necessarily call them all 'erotic', as that's generally used for highbrow smut explicit and arousing sexuality, but all of these stories invo...
Hummmm, just read the book description....******************************************************************Celebrated fantasy author PETER S.

I always have a hard time reviewing anthologies, at least when they are by multiple authors. I kind of feel like unless I rate each individual story, it doesn't really matter. I mean, my review is basically always gonna be the same unless an anthology totally sucks or every story is awesome. "Some s...
