dark mysterious medium-paced
This was kind of disappointing.... there was potential in almost every story. But, they all stopped right when the story got to the good part. The stories were creepy but not scary. Would not recommend

I'm going to be fair and not rate this one. The first six stories were really bad. But it got me to the L.A. Banks story which naturally, was a good one. The following story was bad so I skipped to the Brandon Massey story and that was pretty good. The story after that literally made me say out loud "What the hell was that?" which prompted me to skip to the Barnes/Due story and I enjoyed that one. Thankfully that was the last story in the anthology so I wasn't tempted to try yet another bad short story.

I was so excited about this collection and am very disappointed in what I read. I read ten out of the twenty stories and only liked three. That's not good. I didn't think that I would love every story and that's okay, but I didn't think that the stories I did read would make me hesitant to read others in the collection and they honestly did. I may have missed out on a few more good shorts because I was bitten so many times by bad stories that I didn't want to waste my time hoping that just one more would be decent. My stack of unread books is just too high for me too keep crossing my fingers when the writing is on the wall for this one. Three stories just can't save an entire collection.
