4.0

An older (1994) edition of the mammoth book of the best new horror (volume 5), this edition earns it's spot amongst all the others.

I have to say, I found this version a little disappointing and had to drudge my way through more stories than usual. This is most likely due to the age of publication and the wider array of authors from the later editions. That being said, I did enjoy "One size eats all" by TED Klein, "The Marble Boy" by Gahan Wilson and "Mefisto in Onyx" by Harlan Ellison.

I recommend this book, but if you have an option, go for a more recent edition.
