Garden of Fiends: Tales of Addiction Horror by Mark Matthews, Kealan Patrick Burke, John Fd Taff

3.0

 I haven't had a great time lately with anthologies. For whatever reason, they haven't been overly positive for me. It might just be that I want a longer story. Something with more impact than a quick intro, problem, and conclusion. At the same time, I did like two stories in this collection. Considering it is only eight stories in total, 25% is not that bad. Anyway, here's my two favorites. 

"A Wicked Thirst" by Kealan Patrick Burke - A couple on a date that becomes a night and more 

"Returns" by Jack Ketchum - A man returns as a ghost. I'm not saying more because it will ruin the story and this one wrenches at the heart hard!!
