Very good
11 Feb 2005
Format:Paperback
I've enjoyed the majority of the stories in this compilation. Granted, there have been a few that really didn't inspire much interest but others have stirred my interest in searching down that specific author's work to read more because I like the flow of words.
This is the first one I had gotten and as it interested me so much, I've gotten the most current edition to read.

WTF?
25 Jun 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
It's been ten minutes on my Kindle and I still have not got to the first story. There is no table of contents you can click on and get to the stories and just when I think I am done with the authors foolishness more comes up. I will write more later when and if I actually get to read a story

strong anthology
12 Aug 2003
Format:Paperback
As usual, this annual anthology serves up some of the best work, although this time around, the emphasi is more on orror than fantasy this year. The tales represent a wide panorama of the genres. Most of which are quite strong and a few are tremndous with one particular tale, "The Hunter's Wife," an incredible five star plus treat. Editors Ellen Datlow and Terri Windling also include their usual insightful analysis of the year. Especially interesting besides the obvious trend analysis that make for fascinating reading notably when compared to earlier editions of this tome is the recognition of comic books as a legitimate form of fantasy.
Overall this edition is a strong anthology that holds up against its illustrious history. Readers will enjoy savoring this collection over several weeks (this reviewer read 2-3 stories a night).
