This review is from: The Mammoth Book of Best New Horror: No.11 (Mammoth Books) (Paperback)
Horror fans have a lot to thank Steven Jones for, and in the list of his achievements this series must come near the top. Essentially, Best New Horror is an annual reminder of how a genre with a sometimes dubious reputation can still come up with some of the most brilliantly written stories of the year. These are pieces by talented authors who are obviously working in the genre out of choice, producing work that stands head and shoulders above the vast majority of mainstream fiction currently available. Volume 11 maintains the tradition established by its predecessors, with standout novellas by F Paul Wilson (Aftershock), Tim Lebbon (White) and Peter Straub (Pork Pie Hat). David Case (famous for The Cell and The Hunter from The Pan Book of Horror Stories) also has an entry, and Paul McAuley's "Naming the Dead" is a terrific tale of a Victorian detective tackling spirits in modern-day London in a story which sounds from his introduction as if it was written for Steven Jones' Dark Detectives anthology which came out from Fedogan and Bremer last year. Certainly it would not have been out of place in that volume. So, 21 stories with not a bad one among them, a summary of the year in horror and a detailed "Necrology" listing all those connected (however tenuously) with the genre who have departed over the last twelve months. Anyone with a passing interest in how good this genre really can be (and that's nothing short of excellent to me and you) should get a copy of this now.
