Quick quotes

    What an absolute disaster.

    Usually when I read anthologies I pontificate about how it's the nature of having multiple authors that makes them inconsistent.

    Some of the stories are good, but overall, it's a mess.

Quick quotes

    I found it very entertaining, but some stories held my interest far more than others.

    I also loved the fact that P.C Cast explains (in her introduction) that the profits from this book went to the American Library Association.

    The stories are fun, nicely collected, neatly disturbing and intriguing.
