Solid Collection
An excellent selection of horror and dark fantasy by a number of talented authors. Some solid hits, and even the tales that didn't gel with me were well crafted. Recommended.

Eclectic Modern Horror Collection
Some are good, some are great. As stated by editor Ellen Datlow there isn’t really a theme, though “monsters” crop up frequently. The greatest strength of short stories is also its weakness: you can drop the reader into something electric without much explanation. The downside is if the reader is trying to puzzle out what’s happening then it is hard to get invested in the story. But the highs here outweigh the lows. Highly recommended for horror fans who favor a literary bent.

One of her very best.

An excellent anthology
A classic Datlow anthology in terms of quality and attention to detail. Some stories I liked a lot (A Wish from a Bone and Power more than all the others), others a little less (especially The Witch Moth and The Year of Omens), but my likes and dislikes are entirely due to personal thematic and tonal preferences, as all the stories are interesting and well written. If you like the idea suggested by the title/cover, admire Datlow's work, or know some of the authors, this book should not disappoint.
