5.0 out of 5 stars Prime Cuts 16 Nov 2009
Format:Mass Market Paperback
A terrific anthology. Jack Cady's 'By Reason of Darkness', a superbly atmospheric story, stands out as does David Morell's contribution. An excellent book.

5.0 out of 5 stars A super collection of "horror" stories, by some of the best 3 April 1998
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
There are some great stories in this collection, including "The Night Flyer" by Stephen King, which would later be released in Nightmares and Dreamscapes. The biggest surprise, however, is from David Morrell, best known for creating Rambo. His story, "Orange is for Anguish, Blue is for Insanity" is without a doubt my favorite horror story ever (and I've read more than my share of Poe, King, etc.) Why it is not included in other "Best Horror Stories" type books is beyond me. I highly recommend this book, or if you're really not interested, at least sit down with it in your bookstore and read "Orange." It's well worth the half hour investment.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good anthology 19 July 2006
By Andy Powter - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This is a very good anthology and includes some real gems, such as Stephen King's The Night Flyer. My only criticism is that it could have taken a few more risks in order to give us some really experimental pieces. Overall, though...very well done.

5.0 out of 5 stars HE SAID ONCE, "HORROR IS AN EMOTION..." 3 July 1998
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
And it is. More than anything, it is something felt. Something experienced. Winter's success with this anthology cannot be denied. That it is still in print after all this time is a true testament to that. The quality of work between the binds of this book is absolutely some of the best stuff in horror, all presented to you by the current masterminds. A rare superb collection.
