I found this anthology when I was an avid reader of anything Graham Masterson wrote, being one of my favorite horror authors. So, I got to read this one, and check out his short story, also Dan Simmons being my favorite I wanted to read his share of this anthology, together with Ray Bradbury and couple of other names that I know and a bunch of horror authors didn’t have a honor to read yet. But, this 500 plus pages monster is not what I thought it would be. Besides three above mentioned authors rest of the stories are not on the level. On the contrary, most are under. As is with any anthology, some stories are better, some not, but this one lacks great stories. Based mostly in body horror, sexual related horror stories and also psychological serial killers, this anthology is for those who still do not know what they want with their horror. Give me Lovecraft related horror stories and novels every day. This one is to avoid. Better spend time reading something better. I will soon tell you what if you read this webzine.
